Ida CoxMail Man Blues Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Watching and awaiting to hear a bit of news
Watching and awaiting to hear a bit of news
Sighing and cryin' with these mail man blues
[Verse 2]
Did you ever dream you are lucky, wake up cold in hand
Did you ever dream you are lucky, wake up cold in hand
Didn't have a dollar to meet the house rent man
[Verse 3]
Run to the Western Union to send a telegram
Run to the Western Union to send a telegram
Try to get a favor from your one-time man in 'Bam
[Verse 4]
But pals are so deceivin', true friendship is a joke
But pals are so deceivin', true friendship is a joke
They are with you when you're prosperous, you can't find them when you are broke
[Verse 5]
Disheartened and disgusted, mama's feeling sad
Disheartened and disgusted, mama's feeling sad
These old mail man blues are the worst blues I ever had
