Gertrude "Ma" Rainey - Big Feeling Blues lyrics

Ma:
"All these many years I've been pleadin' for a man
How come I can't get me a real monkey man?
I'm not no triflin'1 woman

I've been lookin' for a man I can call my own
Been married many times but they left my home
Ah, big feelin' blues, worst I ever had
I've got the big feelin' blues I mean I've got them bad"

Charlie2:
"If you're lookin' for a brown, come get this chocolate cream
I'm a big kid-man - just out of my teens"

Ma:
"Ah, big feelin' blues, worst I ever had
I've got them big feelin' blues, I mean I've got them bad"

"Unlucky with my yellow, unlucky with my brown,Gertrude "Ma" Rainey - Big Feeling Blues - http://motolyrics.com/gertrude-ma-rainey/big-feeling-blues-lyrics.html
the black bitches keep on throwin' me down'
"Ah, big feelin' blues, worst I've ever had
I've got the big feelin' blues, I mean I've got them bad"

Charlie:
"If you need a good man why don't you try me?
I sure can put you out of your misery"

Ma:
"Ah, big feelin' blues, worst I've ever had
I've got the big feelin' blues, I mean I've got them bad
There's a whole lot left, what's left is good
Give me a chance, honey, I'll make you change your neighbourhood
Ah, big feelin' blues, worst I've ever had,
I've got the big feelin' blues, I mean I've got them bad"
