"Blues At Midnight"

"Blues At Midnight"


When that midnight hour went chiming,
I was in my room alone
Yes, when that midnight hour went chiming,
I was in my room alone
Yes, and when I came home this evening,
I found my baby gone

Oh, I laid my head on my pillow,
I gazed up at the stars up above
Yes, I laid my head on my pillow,
yes, lookin' up at the stars above
I tell you it's a miserable feeling,
oh, when you lose the one you love

Oh, I get the blues at midnight,
oh there's one thing I can't describe
Oh, I get the blues at midnight,
oh there's one thing I can't describe
Yes, and when you look at your baby's picture
oh, the tears will come from your eyes

"Blues Before Sunrise"

"Blues Before Sunrise"


I have the blues before sunrise
With tears standin' in my eyes
I have the blues before sunrise
Tears standin' in my eyes
It's such a miserable feelin'
A feelin' I do despise
Seems like everybody
Everybody's down on me
Seems like everybody
Everybody's down on me
I am gonna cast my problems
Down in the deep blue sea
Oh, today's been such a long lonesome day
Today's been, day's been
Such a long lonesome day
I've been just sittin' here thinkin'
With my mind a million miles away
The blue starts rollin'
And they stopped in the front of my door
Blues are rollin'
And they stopped at my front door
I'm gonna change my way of livin'
And I ain't gonna worry no more, no more

"Blues Stay Away"

"Blues Stay Away"


Blues stay away from me
Oh blues, why don't you let me be
Don't know why
You keep on haunting me
Love was never meant for me
Oh true love was never meant for me
Seem somehow
We never can agree
Life is full of misery
Oh dreams are like memories
Bringing back
The love that it used to be
Tears, so many I can't see
Oh yes, don't mean a thing to me
Oh, don't go by
Still I can be free

Oh dreams are like memories
Bringing back

Tears, so many I can't see
Oh yes, don't mean a thing to me
Oh, don't go by
Still I can be free

"Bluesman"

"Bluesman"


I've traveled for miles around
It seems like everybody wanna put me down
Because I'm a blues man
But I'm a good manunderstand
I went down to the bus station
Looked up on the wall
My money was too lightpeople
Couldn't go nowhere at all
I'm a blues man
But a good manunderstand
The burdens that I carry are so heavyyou see
It seems like it ain't nobody in this great big world
That would wanna help old b.
But I will be all rightpeople
Just give me a break
Good things come to those who wait
And I've waited a long time
I'm a blues man but a good manunderstand

"Boogie Woogie Woman"

"Boogie Woogie Woman"


I got a boogie-woogie woman
Boogie-woogie all the time
I got a boogie-woogie woman
Boogie-woogie all the time
If she keep on boogyin'
She bound to lose her mind

Well, she boogies in the mornin'
And she boogies all night long
Well, she boogies in the mornin'
And she boogies all night long
Yes, and the...come
She's still goin' strong

Well, she boogies in the mornin'
And she boogies late at night
Well, she boogies in the mornin'
And she boogies late at night
Well, I don't mind her boogyin'
'Cause her boogyin' is all right

Well, she's a bogie-woogie woman
And she boogies all the time
Well, she's a bogie-woogie woman
And she boogies all the time
Well, if keep on boogyin'
She bound to lose her mind

"Born Again Human"

"Born Again Human"


You taught me how to bend and never break
You showed me how to give instead of take
There was no sacrifice too great with you
Sweet, sweet woman can't you see what you doin'
You made me a born, a born again human
Born again human

To took a broken man and you made him whole
You touched my lips and reached my very soul
There was no miracle you couldn't do
Sweet woman, can't you see what you doin'
You made me a born, born again human
A born again human

You're my religion now
My hope and faith
Through your love I rejoined the human race
Sweet, sweet woman, can't you see what you doin'
You made me a born, a born again human
Born again human
Born again human

"Bringing In A Brand New Year"

"Bringing In A Brand New Year"


At the stroke of midnight
On that great big holiday
We're going to have a ball, and that ain't all
I'm gonna chase my blues away
I'll be bringin' in a brand new year
Bringin' in a brand new year
So listen dear, won't you meet me here
While I'm bringin' in a brand new year
Gonna be a great big parade
I got my resolution made
Gonna ride above the stars
We might even take a trip to mars
I'll be bringin' in a brand new year
Bringin' in a brand new year
So listen dear, won't you meet me here
While I'm bringin' in a brand new year
Oh sailin' down on a rainbow
I'll flirt with lady moon
If she sighs or winks her eye
I won't be back 'til June
I'll be bringin' in a brand new year
Bringin' in a brand new year
So listen dear, won't you meet me here
While I'm bringin' in a brand new year

"Broken Heart"

"Broken Heart"


You're breaking my heart, baby
There ain't a damn thing I can do
You got me wringing my hands
And crying, baby
While you're breaking my heart in two
You know I just can't believe
I can't believe, baby
That you're doing the things you do

I can't believe, baby
I can't believe you would do me wrong
Please have mercy on me, baby
I want you to come on back
Come on back where you belong
I want you so bad
I want you so bad, baby
You know I need my lady home

"Broken Promise"

"Broken Promise"


You broke your promise, baby
You don't love, honor or obey
You won't do nothing I tell you
You go on mistreating me everyday
You're hardly acting your part, baby
You won't do nothing the preacher says

You don't love me, baby
You don't even wish me well
Honor's just a joke with you, baby
You don't love me, I can tell
Married life with you, baby
I'd rather be living in a cell

You deceive me, baby
You use me like a child
You tricked me into loving you, baby
I was loving you all the while
You played with my heart, baby
I said I was loving you all the while
