Looka here pretty mama, I`ll tell you what I`ll do
I`ll make these lots of dollars and bring `em all home to you
Now I`m weary, weary hearted and blue
And that`s why I`m cryin` these weary hearted blues
I`ll give you my money, baby I`ll admire
I`ll do as all for you mama, you require
Still I`m weary, weary hearted and blue
And that`s why that I`m cryin` these weary hearted blues
I`ll even hold your head when you are feelin` bad
I`ll sing and dance for you mama, when you`re sad
Now I`m weary, weary hearted and blue
And that`s why I`m cryin` these weary hearted blues
I wanna tell all you mens nice and kind
You lose your best woman, don`t you fool with mine
Cause I`m weary, weary hearted and blue
And that`s why I`m cryin` these weary hearted blues
Now a white man go to the river, take him a seat and sit down
The blues overtake him, he jump overboard and drown
Yes he`s weary, weary hearted and blue
And that`s why we`re cryin` these weary hearted blues
Now a colored man go to the river, take him a seat and sit down
He takes the blues, he come home back to town
And yet he weary, weary hearted and blue
And that`s why I`m cryin` these weary hearted blues
I wants all you men to let my good gal alone
I give her a dollar in the street and I`ll give her two at home
Cause I`m weary, weary hearted and blue
And that`s why I`m cryin` these weary hearted blues
