Good morning blues please shake hands with me
Good morning blues please shake hands with me

I've got the blues this morning Just as low as I can be

How can I sleep nights baby when you turn your back on me
How can I sleep nights baby when you turn your back on me

I'm gonna take my troubles go down by the sea

You can eat in my kitchen sleep in my bed
Fall down in my arms pretty papa rest your worried head

Cause I need need some loving now

I ain't had no one to love me weeee like you know how

I woke up this morning with the rising sun
I woke up this morning with the rising sun

My pretty papa's a Jockey and he sure don't ride for fun

If you see my jockey I said please tell him hurry home
If you see my jockey I said please tell him hurry home

I ain't had no loving lord since my jockey been gone

My jockey rode this morning and my love come falling down
My Jockey rode this morning and my love come falling down

Said I'll be your monkey woman but please don't lead me around

Take a racehorse to run a jockey to ride around
Take a pretty sealskin papa make my love come down

Cause I don't feel welcome sleeping by myself

Lord since you went away and left me I don't want nobody else
