INTRO

Well now, when I wake up this mornin', mama, and I could not hardly see
Then I wake up this mornin', babe, I could not hardly see
Well, well, my little woman quit me, baby, now you know that was worryin' me

Now I've got the blues, I been had them all along
Got the blues, I been had them all along
Well, so now if I could find me a pistol, mama baby, won't have the blues very long

Well, now, it was one mornin', just about half past four
Hoo-hoo-uh, was one mornin', baby, now it was 'bout half past four
Well, when my sweet woman told me, "Daddy, now I don't want you no more."

SOLO

Well, well, one of these mornin's, mama now and it won't be long
I said, one of these mornin's, baby, now it won't be long
Baby, now, you gon' call my name, hooo-hoo-uh, mama, and I will be gone

These days now is growin' on, and the ground is covered over, doggone snow
Say now, your day is growin' on, ground is covered up with doggone snow
Well, now I'm playin' the blues, baby, then I'm not gonna play no more
