Bessie Smith
Sobbin’ Hearted Blues
You treated me wrong, I've treated you right
I worked for you both day and night
You bragged to women that I was your fool
So now I've got them sobbin' hearted blues
The sun don't shine in my back door some days
The sun don't shine in my back door some days
It's true I love you but I won't take mean treatments anymore
All I want is your picture, it must be in a frame
All I want is your picture, it must be in a frame
When you go, I can see you just the same!
I'm gonna start walkin' 'cause I got a wooden pair o' shoes
I'm gonna start walkin', I got a wooden pair o' shoes
Gonna keep on walkin' till I lose thеse sobbin' hearted bluеs
