Chirpin’ The Blues Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Woke up this mornin', heard somebody callin' me
Woke up this mornin', heard somebody callin' me
My man has packed his grip, said he'd leave for Tennessee

[Verse 2]
Lord, I cried all night and all the night before
Lord, I cried all night and all the night before
Gonna change my way of living so I won't have to cry no more

[Verse 3]
Lord, I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
It takes a worried woman to chirp these worried songs

[Verse 4]
What's the use of loving if you can't be with the one you love
What's the use of loving if you can't be with the one you love
You might as well shake hands with your Maker and go to the good Lord above

[Verse 5]
I've got 52 men and I'm looking for just one more
I've got 52 men and I'm looking for just one more
And when I get that one, I'll let the other 52 go

[Verse 6]
If the blues were whiskey, I'd stay drunk all the time
If the blues were whiskey, I'd stay drunk all the time
'Til the man I love would ease my troubled mind
