These Blues
These blues keep hanging 'round me, lawd,
They's hanging 'round both night and day.
Yes, these blues keep hanging 'round me.
They's hanging 'round both night and day.
Nothin' that I do seems to take these blues away.
My man just treats me so mean.
He sure makes me sad and blue.
My man just treats me so mean.
He sure makes me sad and blue.
Lawd, he's got to stop being so mean and cruel.
I think I'll take a train, Lord.
You know I've got to get away.
I think I'll take a train, Lord.
You know I've got to get away.
I'll just keep on riding 'till my dyin' day.
They's hanging 'round both night and day.
