Lyrics

> (We had a request to try to sing some blues I'm not a… I don't know too many of them But if you would like to hear one… We'd like to try... and sing it for you {To the pianist} You can take it now, I'm finished. (laughs) Go ahead, have a ball You see what it comes out like) It was early one Monday mornin' And I was on my way to school It was early one Monday mornin' When I was on my way to school That was the mornin', baby When I broke my mother's rule She said baby, baby, baby You better look out You better look out for those men Yes, my mamma done told me, baby, baby Baby you better look out for those men For thosе men… They'll break your hеart Make you shed those tears over and Over and over and over again Well here I am once again Once again in Berlin town Oooo.. I say once again Once again I'm back in Berlin town Had a ball last time And now I know ain't nobody Gonna bring me down I had a happy feeling Yes I had a happy feeling tonight Back once again I had a feeling I had a feeling I had a feeling Once again, I had a feeling tonight It was a thrill, what thrill Can't keep it inside Yes, baby baby baby Where shall I go next with this song As Ray Charles say Ooo-ooo-ooo… And ain't nobody has done me wrong When I tried to sing those blues And I guess Ella betta get along One more once I say, it's been a ball Wailing and singing for you 'Cause I love you madly It's been a ball - it's been a ball Singing and wailing, wailing and singing for you I could go on singing all night long But the union man tells us we're through So let me finish saying good night to you I say good night to you Auf wiedersehen, auf wiedersehen And once again I thank you Danke schoen, Danke schoen I'm through I'm through singing and swinging the blues! << Transcribed from CD 02Aug2022 caj
