Lyrics
I can't sleep at night, I can't eat a bite
'Cause the man I love, he don't treat me right
He makes me feel so blue, I don't know what to do
Sometimes I sit and sigh, and then begin to cry
'Cause my best friend said he's left to die
There's a change in the ocean
Change in the deep blue sea, my baby
I tell you folks, there ain't no change in me
My love for that man will always be
Now I've got the crazy blues
Since my baby went away
I ain't got no time to lose
I must find him today
Now the doctor's gonna do all that he can
But what you're gonna need is a undertaker man
I ain't had nothin' but bad news
Now I've got the crazy blues
Now I can read his letters, I sure can't read his mind
I thought he's lovin' me, he's leavin' all the time
Now I feel I've pulled out of line
I wish the railroad'd take my head off the track
Lord above, my daddy, I'm glad he sent it back
Now my big boy done gave me the sack
Now I've got the crazy blues
Since my baby went away
I ain't had no time to lose
I must find him today
I'm gonna do like a Chinaman, go and get some hop
Get myself a gun and shoot myself a cop
I ain't had nothin' but bad news
Now I've got the crazy blues
The blues
