Mournin' Blues
Uncle Dave Macon
Been in business and I've been in love
Used to fly high like the turtle dove
Had the blues many a time
Just a little girl on a poor boy's mind
I've got the mourning blues
..
Oh so bad
..
Honey come and kiss me
They're the worst I've ever had
Woke up this morning with a pain in my head
So I crawled right back in bed
Alone in the morning makes you feel so sad
These morning blues is the worst I ever had
I've got the mourning blues
Oh so bad
..
Honey come and kiss me
They're the worst I've ever had
Nickle's worth of grease and a dimes worth of lard
I would buy more but times too hard
No use in me workin' so hard when I can
Live off the chickens in my neighbor's yard
Oh so bad
..
Honey come and kiss me
They're the worst I've ever had
