Crazy Blues

Lyrics

I can't sleep at night
 I can't eat a bite
 'Cause the man I love
 He don't treat me right
 ♪
 He makes me feel so blue
 I don't know what to do
 Sometimes I sit and sigh
 And then begin to cry
 'Cause my best friend
 Said his last goodbye
 There's a change in the ocean
 Change in the deep blue sea, my baby
 I'll tell you folks, there ain't no change in me
 My love for that man will always be
 ♪
 Now I got the crazy blues
 Since my baby went away
 I ain't got no time to lose
 I must find him today
 Now the doctor's gonna do all that he can
 But what you're gonna need is an undertaker man
 I ain't had nothin' but bad news
 Now I got the crazy blues
 Now I can read his letters
 I sure can't read his mind
 ♪
 I thought he's lovin' me
 He's leavin' all the time
 ♪
 Now I see my poor love was blind
 
 I went to the railroad (to)
 Hang my head on the track.
 
 Thought about my daddy--
 I gladly snatched it back!
 
 Now my babe's gone
 And gave me the sack.
 Now I got the crazy blues
 Since my baby went away
 I ain't got no time to lose
 I must find him today
 I'm gonna do like a Chinaman,
 Go and get some hop--
 Get myself a gun, and shoot myself a cop.
 I ain't had nothin' but bad news
 Now I've got the crazy blues.
