I love my baby, she's so mean to me
Yes I love my baby, she's so mean to me
I'm gonna change my way of living baby, move across the deep blue sea



You know you didn't want me baby, when you climbed up on my knee
You were drinkin' moonshine whiskey mama, tryin' to jive poor me
Yes I love you, yes I love you, yes I love, and I don't care what you do

Brownskin woman, who might you're good man be
Brownskin woman, who might you're good man be
Say the reason why I ask you baby, you sure look good to me

This is a mean old world,
Baby to live in by yourself.
This is a mean old world,
Baby to live in by yourself.
Can't get the woman you love,
Cause you know she's lovin someone else.

Well I drink to keep from worryin
Baby and I smile to keep from cryin'.
Yes I drink to keep from worryin
And you know I smile to keep from cryin.
That's to keep the public from knowin
Just what I have on my mind.

Evening, every night you come and you find me
And you always remind me that my baby's gone
Evening, you got me deeply in your power
Every minute seems just like an hour, now that my baby's gone

Shadows fall upon the wall, that's the time I miss your kiss most of all
Even though I try, how can I go on

Oh evening, let me sleep till glow of dawn is breakin'
I don't care if I don't awaken, since my baby's gone

Shadows fall upon the wall, that's the time I miss your kiss most of all
Even though I try, how can I go on

Evening, let me sleep till glow of dawn is breakin'
I don't care if I don't awaken, since my man is gone

They call it stormy Moday, but Tuesday's just as bad
They call it stormy Moday, but Tuesday's just as bad
Wednesday's worse, and Thursday's also sad

Yes the eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play
Eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play
Sunday I go to church, then I kneel down and pray

Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy, my heart's in misery
Crazy about my baby, yes, send her back to me

Let your hair down baby,
Let's have a natural ball.
Let your hair down baby,
Let's have a natural ball.
Cause when you're not happy,
It ain't no fun at all.

You can't take it with you,
That's one thing for sure.
You can't take it with you baby,
That's one thing for sure.
There's nothing wrong with ya baby,
That a good T-Bone shuffle can't cure.

Have fun while ya can,
Fate's an aweful thing.
Have fun while ya can,
Fate's an aweful thing.
You can't tell what might happen,
That's why I love to sing.

Glamour girl, glamour girl.
I'm cutting out on you
You just a play type of baby.
And I ain't got no use for you.

Seven days you play the races.
Seven nights you stay out late.
Your always caught in funny places.
Every guy you think is great.

Glamour girl, glamour girl
I find you'll never do.
You just a play type of baby.
And I ain't got no use for you.

Twelve o clock is rising hour.
You think that's a crime.
You better find a better place for charlie
Cause I'm through feeding ya mine.

Glamour girl, glamour girl
I find you'll never do.
You just a play type of baby.
And I ain't got no use for you.

Now the fastest train that's leavin
Is much to slow for me.
Now the fastest train that's leavin
Is much to slow for me.
When all these years I tried to believe you,
That was just a foolin me.

you don't love me, i don't even care
you don't love me, i don't even care
i could get a woman like you anyplace anywhere
bye bye baby
momma if you call i'm gone

i've got a brand new woman to move in your happy home

someday baby
mommma when you change your ways
someday baby
momma when you change your ways
them things will be different
you can have your same old place

How can you be so evil baby,
And still say you arent.
How can you be so evil baby,
And still say you arent.
You such an evil woman
I'm afraid to close my eye.

When I come home in the evenin',
And I'm five minutes late.
When I come home in the evenin',
And I'm five minutes late.
You start right out believin baby
I must have had a date.

Well I can't go to barber,
Don't have a dime for a shave.
Can't go to the barber baby,
Don't have a dime for a shave.
You just sit home and holla mama.
You'll surely drive me to my grave.

It's a cold-blooded world
When a man has to pawn his shoes
It's a cold-blooded world
When a man has to pawn his shoes
That's the fix I'm in today
I swear I've been abused
Yes, the woman is a devil
She will trick you if she can
Yes, the woman is a devil
She will trick you if she can
She will tell you that she love you
An work out some other plan
Got those alimony blues
An I sure got to pay some dues
Got those alimony blues
An I sure got to pay some dues
And if I run short of cash
It's the road camp, I've got to choose.

my pretty baby don't have eyes for me no more
she done packed all her clothes
and walked right out of my door
oh but life is too short to worry
too short to sit and cry
life is too short to worry
too short to sit and cry
i'm gonna find me another woman
and kiss bygones goodbye

> tried to treat you nice and kind
but you wouldn't pay that no mind
oh baby you don't seem to understand
that's your alibi
i believe you got another man
wait for you day and night
and try to do the things that right
oh baby
you don't seem to understand
let me hold your hand
to get you to understand

cmon pretty baby
heard you got a boyfriend you don't want anymore
you're just as fine as any girl could be
i would take you everywhere
to parties to
i would do most anything you would want me to do
i heard about you a long time ago
and if you will be mine i'd take you any place I'd go
say baby
sure look fine to me
you're just as fine as any gal can be

I get so weary in the evenin when the suns goin down.
I get so weary in the evenin when the suns goin down.
I get so lonesome when my baby's not around.

When I go to bed at night,
And the birds begin to call.
When I go to bed at night,
And the birds begin to call.
I feel so sad and lonely,
For my baby that ain't all.

Well I get up in the mornin',
Just before the break of day.
When I get up in the mornin',
Just before the break of day.
Thinking about my baby,
But I know she's going to stay.

you didn't care for me baby until i started running around
and when i found me a woman
your love came tumblin down
you would go out at night
and stay till the break of day
your mind was made the other way
you say you love me
i can't believe its true
and you ust want to use me baby
you ahd nothing else to do
you went out on your party
when you were through
you brought another man to my front door with you

tell me whats the reason you keep on teasin me
you said you don't want me but you won't let me be
tell me whats the reason you do the things you do
you're breakin my achin heart till it pains me through and through

i get up in the mornin
feelin kind of good
hopin my baby
will do the things she should
i hold you in my arms
tight
and the only thing you want is another fight

please don't be angry with me cause i've gone away
i've told you about your mistakes
but you didn't hear a word i said
i'm so tired of worrying
i don't know just what to do
i'm sorry baby
i just can't put up with you

i've tried to please you
but you just wasn't satisfied with me
well i tried to please you
you just wasn't satisfied with me
i've had to do it ever since i met you
now you ought to be free

i should be crying over you baby
but you've been so true to me
i shouldn't cry over you baby
but you've been so true to me
when i get to thinking baby
why the blues won't let me be
if the blues would leave me, i think i'd know what to do
i've got the blues again
can't think of anyone but you
you don't love me
and your love ain't fair
i can find me another woman
anyplace, anywhere

i'm through with woman
i'm done with love
i didn't get that way
till i prayed to lord above

you can't live with a woman
you can't live without
i'm so doggone glad
my love is played out

don't ever touch a woman
that's what the good book says
i've touched one too many
that's why i feel this way

chorus

playin around with a woman
is like droppin an atomic bomb
if you don't know what you're doing
they'll blast you to kingdom come

chorus

Blues is a woman.
That woman I call my own.
Blues is a woman.
That woman I call my own.
I'm happy when she's near me,
Sad when she leaves me all alone

Blues is feelin,
That pains your very heart.
Blues iis a feelin,
That pains your very heart.
Don't feel it when she's with you,
But how it aches when where apart.

Blues is song,
I sing both night and day.
Blues is song,
I sing both night and day.
When you got a woman
It makes you sing the blues that way.

sometimes i sang the blues when I know i should be praying
sometimes i sing the blues
when i know i should be praying
for i share the worlds troubles is why i feel this way
i wake up some mornings
feel like I wanna cry
i began to sing the blues
to ease my worried mind
born with emotions
song in my soul
other parts of my story
it may never be told
if i only knew when my trouble would end
if i only knew when my troubles would end
i kiss bad luck goodbye and start all over again
