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
