Lyrics
My mama done told me When I was in pigtails My mama done told me so, A man's gonna sweet talk Give you the big eye, But when the sweet talk is done A man is a two-face, A worrisome thing who'll leave you, Singing the blues in the night Now you know the rain is fallin', Hear that train a callin': "whooee", My mama done told me, Oh that lonesome whistle, Blowing cross the trestle, My mama done told me A "whooee" is a "whooee" Clicket clacks echoin' back The blues in the night The evening breeze will start The trees to cryin' And the moonlight hides its light When you get the blues in the night Oh take my word the mockingbird will sing His saddest saddest kind of song He knows things are wrong and he's right From Natchez to Mobile, from Memphis to St. Joe, Wherever the four winds blow Yeah I've been to the big towns And I heard me some big talk too But when the big talk is done A man is a two-face A worrisome thing leave you Singing oh the blues in the night
