Blues In The Night Lyrics - Singles - Johnny Mercer

My mama done told me when I was in knee-pants 

My mama done told me, she said Son 

A woman will sweet-talk ya, she'll give you the big eye 

But when that sweet talkin' is done 

A woman's a two-face, a worrisome thing 

Who'll leave ya to sing the blues in the night 

Now the rain's a fallin', hear the train a callin', oooo-ee 

Hear the lonesome whistle blowin' 'cross the trestle, oooo-ee 

Oooo-ee-a-oooo-ee, ol' clickety-clack 

Comes echoing back the blues in the night 

The evening breeze will start the trees to cryin' 

And the moonlight will hide its light

When you get the blues in the night 

Take my word, the mockingbird 

He will sing the 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 seem to blow 

I've been in some big towns and I've heard me some big talkin' 

But there is one thing I know 

A woman's a two-face 

She's a worrisome thing 

Who'll leave you to sing the blues in the night
