I went upstairs to pack my leavin' trunk you know

Never seen the blues or whiskey as I get to home

I ain't ever seen the blues or whiskey as I go on

That's why I'm going back home where I have better luck

Listen here mama you know you asked me something, be your kid

Though you said you kidding man, you wanna keep it hid

Don't let my main man, my lover catch you here

Please don't let my main man, my lover catch you here

Hey blue, woke up in three different ways

One said go, the other two said stay

Blues, woke up with the blues in three different ways

One said go, the other two said stay

Wake up mama, I got something to tell you

Can't you see I'm a man, love to sing the blues

Wake up mama, I got something, I got something to tell you

Can't you see I'm a man and I love to sing the blues
