BLUES IN THE NIGHT
Woody Herman
- words by Johnny Mercer, music by Harold Arlen
- written for a film called `Hot Nocturne`, this song became
so popular that the movie was re-titled `Blues in the Night`
My mama done tol` me
When I was in kneepants
My mama done tol` me, Son!
A woman`ll sweet talk
And give ya the big eye
But when the sweet talkin`s done
A woman`s a two-face
A worrisome thing who`ll leave ya t` sing the blues in the night
Now the rain`s a-fallin`
Hear the train a-callin`
Whoo-ee (My mama done tol` me)
Hear that lonesome whistle
Blowin` `cross the trestle
Whoo-ee (My mama done tol` me)
A whoo-ee-duh whoo-ee
Ol` clickety clack`s a-echoin` back the blues in the night (Hum)
My mama was right, there`s blues in the night
