Blues In the Night

Lyrics

[Intro] Got the blues Got the blues in the night [Verse 1] My momma done told me When I was in knee pants My momma done told me, "Son A woman'll sweet talk And give you the big eye But when the sweet talkin's done A woman's a two-face A worrisome thing who'll leave you To sing the blues In the night" [Bridge] Now the rains are falling Here the train a calling Hoo-ey [Verse 2] My momma done told me Hear that lonesome whistle Blowing 'cross the trestle Hoo-ey [Chorus] My momma done told me A-hoo-ey, da-hoo-ey Ol' clickety clack's A-echoing back the blues In the night [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] From Natchez to Mobile From Memphis to Saint Joe Wherever the four winds blow I been in some big towns And I heard me some big talk But there is one thing I know A woman's a two-face A worrisome thing who'll leave you to sing the blues In the night [Chorus] I can't lose those old blues My momma was right There's blues in the night In the night In the night In the night
