Maureen Mcgovern - The Man That Got Away/stormy Weather/blues lyrics
Good riddance, goodbye
 Every trick of his, you're on to -
 But fools will be fools, and where's he gone to?
 The road gets rougher
 It's lonelier and tougher
 With hope, you burn up
 Tomorrow, he may turn up
 There's just no let-up
 The livelong night and day
 Ever since this world began,
 There is nothing sadder than
 A one-man woman
 Looking for the man that got away
 Don't know why
 There's no sun up in the sky
 Stormy weather
 Since my man and I ain't together
 Keeps rainin' all the time
 Life is bare
 Gloom and misery everywhere
 Stormy weather
 Just can't get my poor self together
 I'm weary all the time, the time
 So weary all the time
 When he went away,
 The blues walked in and met me
 If he stays away,
 Old rocking chair will get me
 All I do is pray
 The Lord above will let me
 Walk in the sun once more
 My mama done tol' me
 When I was in pigtails,
 My mama done tol' me,
 "Hon, a man's gonna sweet-talk
 And give ya the big eye,
 But when the sweet talkin's done,
 A man is a two-face,Maureen Mcgovern - The Man That Got Away/stormy Weather/blues - http://motolyrics.com/maureen-mcgovern/the-man-that-got-away-stormy-weather-blues-lyrics.html
 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', "Whooee!"
 My mama done tol' me
 Hear that lonesome whistle
 Blowin' 'cross the trestle, "Whooee!"
 My mama done tol' me
 Ah-whooee-ah-whooee
 Ol' clickety-clack's a-echoin' back
 The blues in the night
 The evenin' breeze will start
 The trees to cryin'
 And the moon will hide its light
 When you get the blues in the night
 Take my word
 The mockingbird'll sing
 The saddest kind o' song
 He knows things are wrong and he's right
 Whooee-ooh
 Whooee-ooh
 From Natchez to Mobile,
 From Memphis to St. Joe,
 Wherever the four winds blow
 I' been in some big towns
 I heard me some big talk
 But there is one thing I know
 A man is a two-face
 A worrisome thing
 Who'll leave ya to sing
 The blues in the night
 Whooee-ooh
 Whooee-ooh
 My mama was right
 I know she was right
 There's blues in the night
