What's that Joe? You want the words to that one? Well, I thought you could look it up in the DT. Oh! You already checked it out with your lap top? Not there, huh? I'm surprised Max would let the site even operate without that one there. Well, here goes.

Good Morning Blues
by Huddie Ledbetter (AKA Lead Belly)

Late last night, turning from side to side,
Oh, oh, turning from side to side.
I was not sick, I was just dissatisfied.

Woke up this mornin', blues walkin' 'round my bed.
Hm, Hm, blues walkin' 'round my bed.
I went for my breakfast, found the blues all in my bread.

I said, "Good mornin' blues, blues how do you do?"
Good mornin' blues, blues how do you do?"
"I'm doin' all right, good mornin' how 'bout you?"

Takes a brown skin woman make a moon-eyed man go blind.
A brown skin woman make a moon-eyed man go blind.
But a chestnut woman will make you change your mind.

Woke up this mornin', blues walkin' 'round my bed.
Hm, Hm, blues walkin' 'round my bed.
I went for my breakfast, found the blues all in my bread.

I said, "Good mornin' blues, blues how do you do?"
Good mornin' blues, blues how do you do?"
"I'm doin' all right, good mornin' how 'bout you?"
