She left me this morning midnight was turning day
She left me this morning midnight's turning day
I didn't have no blues untill my good gal went away
I got the blues like midnight moon shining bright as day
I got the blues like midnight moon shining bright as day
I wish a tornado would blow my blues away
[ fiddle ]
One of these mornings I'm sure gonna leave this town (it's killin' me honey)
One of these mornings I'm sure gonna leave your town
Cause you triflin' women really keep a good man down
[ dobro ]
A woman will follow you right to the jailhouse door
A woman will follow you right to the jailhouse door
Then she'll laugh and tell you you can't fuss and fight no more
I got the blues like midnight...
