Baby Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I woke up this morning
And your baby blues was on my mind
On my mind
I woke up this morning
And your baby blues was on my mind
There's trouble in the kitchen
Soon it will be lovin' time
Sister loves her honey
Brother says the sun don't ever shine
Ever shine
Sister loves her honey
Brother says the sun don't shine
I'm in Pennsylvania
Soon I will be doin' fine
Chorus:
I said oh lady reel
I said oh lady moan
How long's it been that you've been gone
Repeat
Papa Bought a pistol
Said he's gonna lead a life of crime
Life of crime
Papa Bought a pistol
Said he's gonna lead a life of crime
Momma took to cussin'
Said she's gonna make him tow the line
Repeat Chorus
