My mama done told me when I was in pig tails

My mama done told me

Hon a man's gonna sweet talk

And give you the big eye

But when the sweet talkin's done

A man is a two face a worrisome thing

Who'll leave you singin'

The blues in the night

Now you know that rain is fallin'

Hear that train callin' whoo-ee

My mama done told me

Hear that lonesome whistle

Calling cross the trestle whoo-ee

My mama done told me

A whoo-ee duh whoo-ee clickety clacks

Echoin' back the blues in the night

The evening breeze will start the trees to cryin'

And the moonlight hides his light

When you get the blues in the night

Take my word the mockin' bird will the saddest kinda 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've been to the big towns an' I heard me some big talk to

Mmm but when the big talkin's done

A man is a two face a worrisome thing

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

My mama was right there's blues in the night
