Lovesick Blues

Sam, you sure do look like you got the miseries

Man, I-I ain't got no miseries, I'm got

The blues, that's what's the matter with me

The birds singing in the trees and the sun

Is shining, you shouldn't have no blues

I know I-I shouldn't have 'em, but-but-but I got

Every known indication of being in that condition

Well, what's the matter, did they lock up your bootlegger?

No, it's worse than that

I went home this morning and peeped through the window

That sweet thing of mine had done caught out

So now I've got them lovesick blues

I'm in love, I'm in love with a beautiful gal

That's what's the matter with me

I'm in love, I'm in love with a beautiful gal

But she don't care about me

To make her love me I tried, Lord, I was sad and I cried

But she just refused

And ever since my mama's gone away

I've got them lovesick blues

I've got a feeling called the blues

Since my mama said goodbye

It seems I don't know what to do

All I do is sit and cry, oh Lord

The last long day we spent alone

I'm yearning for her again

She thrilled me, filled me with the kind of lovin'

I never will forget the way she called me sweet daddy

Was just a beautiful dream

I hate to think it's all over

I lost my heart it seems, oh Lord

I got so used to her somehow

But I know by heart a stack of cards

But now it's awful when you're lonesome

You got them lovesick blues, oh Lord
