My mama done told me

When I was in knee pants

My mama done told me Son

A woman will sweet talk

And give you the big eye

But when that sweet talk is done

A woman's a two face

A worrisome thing

Who'll leave ya t'sing

The blues

In the night

Now the rain's a falling

Hear the train a calling Hoowee

Hear that lonesome whistle

Blowing across the trestle Hoowee

A hoowee a hoowee clickety clack

A echoing back the blues in the night

The evenin' breeze'll start the trees to cryin'

And the moon'll hide its light

When you get the blues in the night

So take my word the mockingbird'll

Sing the saddest kind o' song

He knows when things are wrong

From Natchez to Mobile from Memphis to St Joe

Wherever the four winds blow

I been in some big towns an' heard me some big talk

But there is one thing I know

A woman's a two-face a worrisome thing

Who'll leave ya to sing the blues in the night
