Muddy Waters - Forty Days & Forty Nights lyrics

Forty days and forty nights Since my baby left this town Sunshinin' all day long But the rain keep comin' down She's my life I need her so Why she left I just don't know Forty days and forty nights Since I set right down and cried Keep rainin' all the time But the river is runnin' dry Lord help me it just ain't right I love that girl with all-a my might Forty days and forty nights Since my baby broke my heart Searchin' for her in a while Like a blind man in the dark Love can make a poor man rich Or break his heart I don't know which Forty days and forty nights Like a ship out on the sea Prayin' for her each night That she would come back-a home to me Life is love and love is right I hope she come back home tonight
