I woke up this morning, woke up this morning, blues all 'round my bed
Well, mama, blues all 'round my bed
Well, mama, blues all 'round my bed
Went to eat my breakfast, had the blues all in my bread
Lord-Lord, Lord-Lord, Lord-Lord, Lord-Lord
Lord-Lord, Lord-Lord, 'shaw
Said, Lord-Lord, Lordy, Lordy, Lord
Don't your room, look lonesome, when your gal pack up and leave?
Well, mama, when your gal pack up and leave
Well, mama, when your gal pack up and leave
Then drink your belly full of moonshine, but your heart sure ain't never free
Lord-Lord, Lord-Lord, (Yes!) Lord-Lord, Lord-Lord
Lord-Lord, Lord-Lord, 'shaw
Drink your belly full of moonshine, but your heart sure ain't never free
I got up this morning, say this morning, worried all the time
Well, I got up this morning, worried all the time
I got up this morning, worried all the time
Way my woman treat me, sure gonna make me lose my mind
Lord-Lord, Lord-Lord, Lord-Lord, Lord-Lord
Lord-Lord, Lord-Lord, 'shaw
Hey, Lord-Lord, Lordy, Lordy, Lord (Yeah!)
Busy lookin' for me, she's up all hours at night
Mm-mm, hmm, hmm, hmm
Mm-mm, hmm, hmm, hmm
Don't care how late I go there, she never cut out all her lights
