[01:40.10]My mama done tol' me,
[01:41.16]When I was in knee pants,
[01:42.72]My mama done tol' me, Son!
[01:46.04]A woman'll sweet talk
[01:51.29]And give ya the big eye;
[01:55.22]But when the sweet talkin's done,
[02:00.41]A woman's a two face
[02:02.97]A worrisome thing
[02:03.85]Who'll leave ya t'sing
[02:05.16]The blues in the night
[02:23.03]
[03:24.77]Now the rain's a-fallin',
[03:27.28]Hear the train a-callin'
[03:32.15]Whoo-ee my mama done tol' me
[03:35.15]Hear that lonesome whistle
[03:38.90]Blowin' 'cross the trestle,
[03:45.85]Whoo-ee my mama done tol' me
[03:50.76]A whoo-ee-duh-whoo-ee, ol' clickety clack's
[03:55.64]A-echoin' back the blues in the night
[04:11.75]
[04:28.46]The evenin' breeze'll start the trees to cryin'
[04:30.51]And the moon'll hide its light
[04:31.95]When you get the blues in the night
[04:44.15]Take my word, the mockin' bird'll
[04:49.84]Sing the saddest kind o' song
[04:56.72]He knows things are wrong and he's right
[05:01.00]
[07:34.99]From Natchez to Mobile,
[07:37.80]From Memphis to St. Jo,
[07:40.55]Wherever the four winds blow,
[07:51.07]I been in some big towns,
[07:52.38]An' heard me some big talk,
[07:54.25]But there is one thing I know
[07:57.46]A woman's a two face,
[07:59.02]A worrisome thing
[08:00.52]Who'll leave ya t'sing the blues in the night.
[08:03.15]My mama was right,
[08:05.71]There's blues in the night.
