DARK AND STORMY NIGHT
(Hudson Whittaker (Tampa Red))

On a cold, dark, and stormy night, (2x)
My baby went and left me just before daylight.

I wonder, did she go to stay? (2x)
I never thought that she would treat me this-a-way.

I'm troubled in my heart and soul. (2x)
She's got a sweet way of loving that makes me lose control.

She is right down on the ground. (2x)
And every time she kiss me, it makes my love come down.

Baby, please come back to me. (2x)
If I've been a bad fellow, I didn't intend to be.

[As recorded by Tampa Red, 1935. JTD]
