Big Joe Turner
Poor Lover’s Blues
Well I'm standing on a highway
Got a long long ways to go
Yes I'm standing on a highway
Got a long long ways to go
Trouble now never forgets me
Happiness I'll never know
Well I thought about my baby
And oh how I love her so
Yes I thought about my baby
And oh how I love her so
And I ain't got no money
So I got to travel this lonesome road
But when I see my baby
I'm gonna love her night and day
When I see my baby
I'm gonna love her night and day
I ain't gonna be no fool no more
Man I ain't never no more going away
I'm gonna take you in my arms
Love baby talk to
Love her till she's breathless
Tell her all the things I wanna do, yeah
When I see my baby
Lord I tell you what I'm going to do
I'm gonna take you in my arms
And love her through and through
