Dinah Shore - Blues In The Night lyrics
rate meBlues in the Night<br />
Dinah Shore<br />
<br />
My momma done told me<br />
When I was in pigtails<br />
My momma done told me, hon<br />
A man's gonna sweet-talk<br />
And give you the glad eye<br />
But when that sweet-talkin's done<br />
A man is a two-faced, a worrisome thing<br />
Who'll leave you to sing the blues in the night<br />
<br />
Now the rain's a fallin'<br />
Hear the trains a-callin' hooey<br />
My momma done told me<br />
Hear that lonesome whistle<br />
Blowing across the trestle, hooey<br />
My momma done tole me, a-hooey, a-hooey<br />
Old clickety clack is echoing back the blues in the night<br />
<br />
The evenin' breeze will start the trees to praying<br />
And the moon will dim it's light<br />
When you hear the blues in the night<br />
<br />
Mark my word the mockingbird<br />
Will sing the saddest kind of song<br />
He knows things are wrong<br />
And he's right<br />
<br />
La ha ha ha-a<br />
La ha ha-a<br />
From Natchez to Mobile<br />
BRFrom Memphis to St. Joe<br />
BRWherever the four winds blow<br />
BRI've been to some big towns<br />
BRI've heard me some big talk<br />
BRBut there is one thing I know<br />
BRA man is a two-faced, a worrisome thing<br />
BRWho'll leave you to sing the blues in the night<br />
BR<br />
BRLa ha ha-a<br />
BRLa ha ha-a<br />
BRMy momma done told me there's blues in the night<br />
