Homesick And Lonesome Blues

[Verse 1]
I lied down last night, mama, I tried to take my rest
Said I lied down last night, baby, I tried to take my rest
And you know my mind got to ramblin', like a wild geese in the west

[Verse 2]
Ain’t but the one thing, just like to change my mind
Ain't but the one thing, like to change my mind
When I started to New York, I left little Cora Mae cryin'

[Verse 3]
I sure can’t sleep, mama, I sure can't rest at night
I can't sleep, mama, I sure can't rest at night
When I get to thinkin' 'bout my little woman, it takes my appetite

[Spoken]
Play that thing, boy!

[Verse 4]
I'm gonna tell my baby, just when I go home
I'm gon’ tell my baby, Lord, when I go homе
These herе women in Harlem, New York, won’t let her baby alone
