Worried Blues

Some folks say, them worried blues ain't bad
Some folks say, them worried blues ain’t bad
'Cause its the worst old feeling, mama, that ever I had

What you 'gon do, when your good man puts you down?
What you ’gon do, when your good man puts you down?
Says "I'm goin' to the river, jump over a boat and drown"

The worried blues, keep on worryin' me
The worried blues, keep on worryin' me
I'm worried, I'm troubled, bothered as I can be

Gonna leave you here this morning, it breaks my heart to go
Leave you here this morning, it breaks my heart to go
When you see me leaving, ain't comin’ here no more

I’m leaving town, ain't comin’ back no more
I'm leaving town, ain't comin' back no more
When you see me leave, pin-crate on your door

I hate to see the, risin’ sun go down
I hate to see the, risin' sun go down
Ain't got nobody, to throw my arms around

-- Papa told me too
Mama she told me, papa told me too
"Everyone smile in your face; they ain't no friend to you"

Some folks say, worried blues ain't bad
Some folks say, that worried blues ain't bad
Its the worst old feeling, pretty mama, that ever I had
