My mama done told me, When I was in pig tails, My mama done told me, The man's gonna sweet talk Is gonna give you the big eye; But when the sweet talkin's done, A man is a two face A worrisome thing Who'll leave you singin', The blues in the night
From Natchez to Mobile, From Memphis to St. Joe, Wherever the four winds blow, Yeah I've been to the big towns, An I heard me some big talk, But there is onething done,??? A man is a two face, A worrisome thing Who'll leave you singin' the blues in the night
Now you know that rain is fallin' Hear that train calling Whoo-ee (my mama done told me) Yeah that lonesome whistle calling cross the trestle), Whoo-ee (my mama done told me) A whoo-ee-duh-whoo-ee, clickety clacks Echoin back the blues in the night
The evening breeze will start the trees to cryin' And the Moonlight hides his light When you get the blues in the night
Take my word, the mockin bird will Sing his saddest, saddest kinda song He knows things are wrong and he's right
From Natchez to Mobile, From Memphis to St. Joe, Wherever the four winds blow, Yeah I've been to the big towns, An I heard me some big talk, But there is onething are done,??? A man is a two face, A worrisome thing Who'll leave you singin' the blues in the night
