Down Home Blues (0405-21) - Ethel Waters

I never felt

So lonesome before

My friend has quit me

He's gone for sure

He broke my heart

For I loved him true

So now I'm worried

Lonesome and blue

I've got the blues on my mind

And I just feel like crying all the time

Woke up this morning the day was dawning

And I was feeling all sad and blue

I had nobody to tell my troubles to

I felt so worried

I didn't know what to do

But there's no use in grievin' because I'm leavin'

I'm broken-hearted and Dixie-bound

I been mistreated ain't got no time to lose

My train is leaving

And I got the down-home blues

Woke up this morning the day was dawning

And I was feeling all sad and blue

Lord I had nobody to tell my troubles to

I felt so worried

I didn't know what to do

But there's no use in grievin' because I'm leavin'

I'm broken-hearted and Dixie-bound

Lord I been mistreated ain't got no time to lose

My train is leaving

And I got the down-home blues
