Blues In The Night Lyrics
My mama done told me
When I was in knee pants
My mama done told me
Son a woman'll sweet talk
And give you the big eye
But when the sweet talkin' is done
A woman's a two face
A worrisome thing
Who'll leave you to sing
The blues in the night
Now the rain's a fallin'
Hear the train a callin' whoo ee
My mama done told me
Hear that lonesome whistle
Blowin' cross the trestle whoo ee
My mama done told me
A whoo ee duh whoo ee
Old clickety clack's a echoin' back
The blues in the night
Evenin' breeze'll start the trees
To cryin' and the moon'll
Hide it's light
When you get the blues in
The night
But Take my word
The mockingbird'll sing
The saddest kind of song
He knows things are wrong
And he's right
From Natchez to Mobile
From Memphis to St Joe
Wherever the four winds blow
Yes I've been in the big towns
And I heard me some big talk
But there is one thing I know
A woman's a two face
A worrisome thing
Who'll leave you to sing
The blues in the night
From Natchez to Mobile
From Memphis to St Joe
Wherever the four winds blow
I've been in some big towns
And I heard me some big talk
But there is one thing I know
A woman's a two face
A worrisome thing
Who'll leave you to sing
The blues in the night
My mama was here
My mama was right
There's blues all blues evernight
