Empty Bed Blues (LaVern Baker Sings Bessie Smith)

Empty Bed Blues - LaVern Baker

I woke up this mornin'

With an awful achin' head

I woke up this mornin'

With an awful achin' head

Well my new man had left me

Just a new room and a empty bed

Bought me a coffee grinder

Hey I got the best one that I could find

Oh Bought me a coffee grinder

Got me the best one that I could find

So he could grind my coffee

'Cause he had a brand new grind

He's a deep sea diver

With a stroke that can't go wrong

I say He's a deep deep driver

With a stroke that can't go wrong

Oh He can touch the bottom

And his wind holds out so long

He knows how to thrill me

And he thrills me night and day

I say he knows how to thrill me

And he thrills me night and day

Oh well He's got a brand new way of loving

Almost takes my breath away

He's got that sweet sweet somethin'

And I told my girlfriend Lou

Oh He's got that sweet sweet somethin'

And I told my girlfriend Lou

Well From the way she's raving

She must have gone and tried it too

I woke up this morning with a awful aching head

Oh I woke up this morning with a awful awful aching head

Oh My new man had left me

Just a new room and a empty bed
