Blue Yodel No. 12

歌詞

Sorrow struck me one morning at the break of day Sorrow struck me one morning at the break of day Cause a mean old man come and took my gal away When I woke up there was nothing to do but rave When I woke up there was nothing to do but rave I know she didn't want me all she wanted was a slave Since my mamas gone I got that aching heart disease Since my mama's gone I got that aching heart disease It works just like a cancer It's gonna kill me by degrees Never take a woman who is short and thick Never take a woman who is short and thick She'll have you hunting lions with a little old walking stick I wish I her good luck everywhere that she roams I wish I her good luck everywhere that she roams I don't know why she left but I know she's never coming home Honey before I met you I had a new pair of shoes Before I met you woman I had a brand new pair of shoes Take a look at me now I've got those barefooted blues
