Blues 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 />
