Blues In The Night Lyrics - Mark Murphy

My mama done tol' me, 

When I was in knee pants, 

My mama done tol' me, Son! 

A woman'll sweet talk 

And give ya the big eye; 

But when the sweet talkin's done, 

A woman's a two face 

A worrisome thing 

Who'll leave ya t'sing 

The blues in the night

Now the rain's a-fallin', 

Hear the train a-callin' 

Whoo-ee (my mama done tol' me) 

Hear that lonesome whistle 

Blowin' 'cross the trestle, 

Whoo-ee (my mama done tol' me) 

A whoo-ee-duh-whoo-ee, ol' clickety clack's 

A-echoin' back the blues in the night 

The evenin' breeze'll start the trees to cryin' 

And the moon'll hide its light 

When you get the blues in the night 

Take my word, the mockin' bird'll 

Sing the saddest kind o' song 

He knows things are wrong and he's right

From Memphis to St. Jo, 

Wherever the four winds blow, 

I been in some big towns, 

An' heard me some big talk, 

But there is one thing I know 

A woman's a two face, 

A worrisome thing 

Who'll leave ya t'sing the blues in the night. 

My mama was right, 

There's blues in the night.
