blues in the night (my mama done tol' me) - ella fitzgerald lyrics
my mama done tol’ me, when i was in knee-pants
my mama done tol’ me, “” son a woman’ll sweet talk””andgive ya the big eye, but when the sweet talkin’s done
a woman’s a two-face, a worrisome thing who’llleave 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!””(mymama done tol’ me) a-whooee-ah-whooee ol’ clickety-clack’s a-echoin’ back th’ blues in the night
theevenin’ breeze’ll start the trees to cryin’ and the moon’ll hide its light when you get the blues inthe night
take my word, the mockingbird’ll sing the saddest kind o’ song, he knows things are wrong, and he’s right
from natchez to mobile, from memphis to st. joe, wherever the four winds blow
i beenin some big towns an’ heard me some big talk, but there is one thing i know
a woman’s a two-face, aworrisome thing who’ll leave ya to sing the blues in the night
my mama was right, there’s blues in
