Lyrics:
My momma done tol me When I was in knee-pants My momma done tol me, Son, What did she tell you? A woman gon sweet-talkyeah! And give you de glad-eyes, Ah, ahh.. But when that sweet-talk is done: Keep on a- talkin. A womans a two-faced A worrisome thing Wholl leave you to sing the blues... The blues... In the night. Yes, in the night. Now the rains a-fallin, Hear the train a-callin -Oohee... My momma done tol me. Oh... Hey, that lonesome whistles Blowin cross the trestle. Oohee... My momma done tol me. Hey, ahooee - ahooee! A clickety-clackin And echoin back at the blues... In the night. The evenin breeze - The stars - The trees a-cryin and the moon Ll hide it's light When you get the blues In the night. Its really tough to get the blues in the night. Take my word: The mockingbird Sings the saddest kind of song; He knows things are wrong - And he's right. Yes, he's right to sing the blues in the night. From Natchez to Mobile; From Memphis to St. Joe; Wherever the four winds blow; They blow everywhere! I been in some big towns, Yeah! And I done heard me some big talk, Ahh, ahh... But there's one thing I know: Keep a-talkin. A womans a-two-faced - A worrisome thing Wholl leave you to sing the blues... The blues In the night. Yes, in the night. A woman will leave you singin the blues. I know she will - My momma was right: The blues in the night.
