I get the blues round about Midnight Early with the rising sun Begin to think about my little angel And all the good the poor girl done You know my heart beat like a hammer And my eyes get overloaded with tears Only been gone twenty four hours Although it seems like a thousand years Should have loved her more But I realized I didn't treat her right You know I should have loved her more But I realized I didn't treat her right You take a woman like that She need lovin' every day and night (Yeah) So now the blues bearing down on me Brought 'em all on myself When I should have been loving my baby I was out loving somebody else So it's a mighty hard pill to swallow Want all you boys to know Well we better mind what we are sowing 'Cause we got to reap what we sow Don't never dog your woman When ya know you're doing wrong yourself Don't you never dog your woman When ya know you're doing wrong yourself She'll get hell on her mind And go wild about somebody else River runs into the ocean Ocean runs into the sea If I don't find that little angel Well somebody got to bury me 'Cause I swear I did love her Better than I did myself You know I loved my woman Better than I did myself Now it's breaking my heart To know she got somebody else (Play it a lil bit longer now boy) (It's hard boy, but it's fair)
