Text:
My mama done tol' me, when I was in knee-pants
My mama done tol' me, " Son a woman'll sweet talk"
And give ya the big eye, but when the sweet talkin's done
A woman's a two-face, a worrisome thing
Who'll leave ya to sing the blues in the night
Now the rain's a-fallin', hear the train's a-callin,
"Whooee!"
(My mama done tol' me)
Hear dat lonesome whistle blowin' 'cross the trestle,
"Whooee!"
(My mama done tol' me)
A-whooee-ah-whooee ol
clickety-clack's a-echoin' back the blues in the night
The blues in the night, from Memphis to St. Joe
Wherever the four winds blow
I been in some big towns an' heard me some big talk,
But there is one thing I know
A woman's a two-face, a worrisome thing
Who'll leave ya to sing the blues in the night
My mama was right, there's blues in the night.
My mama done tol' me, " Son a woman'll sweet talk"
And give ya the big eye, but when the sweet talkin's done
A woman's a two-face, a worrisome thing
Who'll leave ya to sing the blues in the night
Now the rain's a-fallin', hear the train's a-callin,
"Whooee!"
(My mama done tol' me)
Hear dat lonesome whistle blowin' 'cross the trestle,
"Whooee!"
(My mama done tol' me)
A-whooee-ah-whooee ol
clickety-clack's a-echoin' back the blues in the night
The blues in the night, from Memphis to St. Joe
Wherever the four winds blow
I been in some big towns an' heard me some big talk,
But there is one thing I know
A woman's a two-face, a worrisome thing
Who'll leave ya to sing the blues in the night
My mama was right, there's blues in the night.
