Mmm, blues early in the mornin'
Whoa, Lord, ya know I have them late at
Mmm, early in the mornin'
God knows I have 'em late at night
Yeah, you know I been wonderin' why my little baby
She just won't straighten up and fly right

Well, you take a man have the blues
Whoa, he can't last very long, mmm
Whoa, he can't last very long
Well, he wake up early and he moanin 'Om' in the woods
That poor child, God, is gone
