Jim Reeves - Blue Yodel No. 5 lyrics

rate me

De-yo-del-lay-ee-oh, del-lay-ee-ay, del-lay-ee

It's raining here, stormin' on the deep blue sea-ee,

Lawd, it's raining here, stormin' on the deep blue sea.

Ain't no black-headed mama can make a fool out of me.

Yo-de-lay-ee, uh-lay-ee-oh, del-lay-ee.

Now I can see a train coming down the railroad track.

I see that train, coming down the railroad track

And I love to hear, the bark of that old smoke stack.

Yo-de-lay-ee, uh-lay-ee-oh, del-lee-del-lay-ee.

Talk about troubles, that's all I've ever known.

Talk about yer troubles, that's all I've ever known.

Now, if I hadn't have been a man,

I would have stayed at home.

Yo-de-lay-ee, uh-lay-ee-oh, del-lee-del-lay-ee.

I may need clothes; I may need hat and shoes;

I may need clothes; I may need hat and shoes--oos.

Makes no difference what I need; I'll never sing the blues.

De-yo-de-lay-ee-oh, lay-ee-ay, del-lay-ee...
