Στίχοι
My heart is heavy as lead
Because the blues have spread
Rocks in my bed
Of all the people I see
Why did they pick on poor me
And put rocks in my bed?
All night long I weep
So how can I sleep
With rocks in my bed?
That mean man of mine
He's gone and he won't come back
That mean man of mine
He's gone and he won't come back
That man is lower than a snake in a wagon track
I got rocks in my bed
Rocks in my bed
Rocks in my bed
Rocks in my bed
Under-loved, over-fed
My man's gone, so instead
I got rocks in my bed
Written by: Duke Ellington, Harry Carney, Irving Mills
