My mama done tol' me
When I was in knee-pants
My mama done tol' me

Son
A woman'll sweet talk
And give ya the big eye
But when the

Sweet talkin's done
A woman's a two-face
A worrisome thing
Who'll leave ya to sing

The blues in the night
Now the rain's a-fallin'
Hear the train a-callin
Whooee!

My mama done tol' me
Hear that lonesome whistle
Blowin' 'cross the trestle
Whooee!

My mama done tol' me
A-whooee-ah-whooee
OI' clickety-clack's
Echoin' back

The blues in the night
The evenin' breeze
Will start the trees to cryin'
And the moon

Will hide its light
When you get the blues
In the night
And take my word
That mockingbird'll
Sing the saddest

Kind of song
He knows things are wrong
And he's so right
Iwhistlel
From Natchez to Mobile
From Memphis to St. Joe

Wherever the four winds
They might blow
I been in some big towns
And heard me some big talk
But there is

One thing I know
A woman's a two-face
A worrisome thing
Who'll leave ya to sing

The blues in the night
Mmmm mmm mmm
Oooh ooh ooh
My mama was right

There's blues
In the night
