rate me

Writer(s): mercer/arlen<br><br>My mama done tol' me, when I was in knee-pants<br>My mama done tol' me, son a woman'll sweet talk<br>And give ya the big eye, but when the sweet talkin's done<br>A woman's a two-face, a worrisome thing who'll leave ya to sing the blues in the night<br><br>Now the rain's a-fallin', hear the train's a-callin, whooee!<br>(my mama done tol' me) hear dat lonesome whistle blowin' 'cross the trestle, whooee!<br>(my mama done tol' me) a-whooee-ah-whooee ol' clickety-clack's a-echoin' back th' blues in the night<br>The evenin' breeze'll start the trees to cryin' and the moon'll hide it's light when you get the blues in the night<br>Take my word, the mockingbird'll sing the saddest kind o' song, he knows things are wrong, and he's right<br><br>From natchez to mobile, from memphis to st. joe, wherever the four winds blow<br>I been in some big towns an' heard me some big talk, but there is one thing I know<br>A woman's a two-face, a worrisome thing who'll leave ya to sing the blues in the night<br><br>My mama was right, there's blues in the night.
