|
Been in business and I been in love |
|
I used to fly high like a turtle dove |
|
I had the blues many a time |
|
Just a girl on a poor boy's mind |
|
I got the mournin' blues |
|
Oh so bad |
|
Mama come a-kiss me |
|
They're the worst I ever had |
|
A nickel's worth of grease and a dime's worth of lard |
|
I would buy more but the times are too hard |
|
There ain't no use for me to work so hard |
|
'Cause I can live off the chickens in my neighbor's yard |
|
I got the mournin' blues |
|
Oh so bad |
|
Mama come a-kiss me |
|
They're the worst I ever had |
|
I woke up this mornin' with a pain in my head |
|
So I crawled right back in bed |
|
Alone in the mornin' makes you feel so sad |
|
The lonesome blues make you feel so bad |
|
I got the mournin' blues |
|
Oh so bad |
|
Mama come a-kiss me |
|
They're the worst I ever had |
