I went upstairs to pack my leaving trunk
I ain't seen no whiskey but the blues made me sloppy drunk
I ain't never seen no whiskey, woman, but the
Blues, the blues, the blues made me sloppy drunk
ย
I'm going back to Memphis, baby, oh
Honey, where I had much better luck
Look here mama now, you know you asked me to be your kid
She said you can, man, if you only keep it hid
But please don't let my husband, woman, my main man catch you there
ย
She said please don't let my husband
Oh baby, my main man catch you here
I woke up with the blues three different ways
One said go, baby, and the other two said stay
I woke up this morning, mama, honey
With the blues three different ways
ย
And you know one said go, mama, Lord and the poor boy, two said stay
Come on, come on
ย
Wake up, mama, I got something to tell you
Yes, I'm the main baby and I love to sing the blues
Now you better, better wake up, mama
Honey, I got something, I got something to tell you
Soul sure is a jive
And you know I'm the main man, baby
Honey, and I love to sing the blues
Come on in here, Mr. Davis
ย
I went upstairs to pack my leaving trunk
I ain't seen no whiskey but the blues made me sloppy drunk
I ain't never seen no whiskey, honey, you
Know, but the blues made me sloppy drunk
ย
I'm going back to Memphis, baby, oh baby, where I had much better luck
