[00:00.09] Good Morning Blues - Lead Belly
[00:01.34] Now this is the blues
[00:06.91] There was a white man had the blues
[00:09.78] Thought it was nothing to worry about
[00:11.52] Now you lay down at night
[00:13.27] You roll from one side of the bed to the other all night long
[00:18.26] Ya can't sleep, whats the matter; the blues has gotcha
[00:21.38] Ya get up you sit on the side of the bed in the mornin'
[00:23.69] May have a sister a mother a brother n a father around but you don't want no talk out of em
[00:28.56] Whats the matter; the blues has gotcha
[00:30.56] When you go in put your feet under the table look down at ya plate got everything you wanna eat
[00:35.11] But ya shake ya head you get up you say "Lord I can't eat I can't sleep whats the matter"
[00:39.67] The blues gotcha
[00:41.04] Why not talk to ya
[00:42.22] Tell what you gotta tell it
[00:44.97] Well, good morning blues, blues how do you do
[00:50.34] Well, good morning blues, blues how do you do
[01:00.57] I'm doing all right well, good morning how are you.
[01:07.87] I couldn't sleep last night, I was turning from side to side
[01:15.30] Oh Lord, I was turning from side to side
[01:22.66] I wasn't sad, I was just dissatisfied.
[01:29.90] I couldn't sleep last night, you know the blues walking 'round my bed,
[01:36.95] Oh Lord, the blues walking 'round my bed
[01:44.06] I went to eat my breakfast, the blues was in my bread.
[01:51.30] Well good morning blues, blues how do you do.
[01:56.17] Well, good morning blues, blues how do you do.
[02:05.40] I'm doing all right, well, good morning how are you.
