Thinking Blues - Bessie Smith

Did you ever sit thinking with a thousand things on your mind

Did you ever sit thinking with a thousand

Things on your mind

Thinking about someone

Who has treated you so nice and kind

You'll get an old letter and you begin to read

You'll get an old letter and you begin to read

Got the blues so bad tell that man

Of mine I wanna be

Don't you hear me baby

Knocking on your door

Don't you hear me baby

Knocking on your door

Have you got the nerve to

Drive me from your door

Have you got the nerve to say

Thay you don't want me no more

Have you got the nerve to say

Thay you don't want me no more

The good book said you got

To reap what you sow

Take me back baby try me one more time

Take me back baby try me one more time

That's the only way I can get these

Thinking blues off my mind
