I got the dark night blues |
|
I'm feeling awful bad |
|
I got the dark night blues |
|
Mama, I'm feeling awful bad |
|
That's the worst ol' feeling |
|
That a good man have ever had |
|
I followed my brown |
|
From the depot to the train |
|
I followed my fair brown |
|
From the depot to the train |
|
And the blues came down |
|
Like dark night showers o' rain |
|
I drink so much whiskey |
|
I stagger when I'm sleep |
|
Drink so much whiskey |
|
I stagger when I'm sleep |
|
My brains are dark and cloudy |
|
My mind's gone to my feet |
|
I got the blues so bad |
|
I can feel them in the dark |
|
I got the blues so bad |
|
I can feel them in the dark |
|
And one dark and dreary morning |
|
Baby, when you broke my heart |
|
I got a fair brown in Atlanta |
|
Got one in Macon too |
|
I got a fair brown in Atlanta |
|
Got one in Macon too |
|
I got one in Statesboro |
|
Give me them old dark night blues |
|
Everything I told you |
|
Went and told your outside man |
|
Everything I told you |
|
Mama, you went and told your outside man |
|
But I want to tell you something |
|
Your good man can't stand |
|
Riding the PNP Special |
|
Mama, and I'm leaving this town |
|
Riding the PNP Special |
|
Baby, and I'm leaving this town |
|
Say you didn't want me |
|
I'ma quit hanging around |
