BLUES IN THE NIGHT

Woody Herman

- words by Johnny Mercer, music by Harold Arlen

- written for a film called "Hot Nocturne", this song became

so popular that the movie was re-titled "Blues in the Night"

My mama done tol' me

When I was in kneepants

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 Woody Herman - Blues In The Night - http://motolyrics.com/woody-herman/blues-in-the-night-lyrics.html

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 (Hum)

My mama was right, there's blues in the night
