Woody Herman - Blues in the Night lyrics

My Mama done told me When I was in knee pants My Mama done told me "Son, a woman'll sweet talk And give you the big eye But when the sweet talkin's done" A woman's a two face A worrisome thing who'll leave you to sing the blues In the night Now the rain's a fallin' Hear the train a callin' Whoo-ee (My Mama done told me) Hear that lonesome whistle Blowin' 'cross the trestle Whoo-ee (My Mama done told me) A whoo-ee-duh whoo-ee Ol' clickety clack's a echoin' back the blues In the night From Natchez to Mobile From Memphis to St. Joe Wherever the four winds blow Yeah I've been in some big towns And heard me some big talk But there is one thing I know A woman's a two face A worrisome thing who'll leave you to sing the blues In the night
