| I can’t sleep at night, I can’t eat a bite,
|
| 'Cause the gal I love, she don’t treat me right.
|
| Oh, baby, you make me feel so blue,
|
| I don’t know what to do.
|
| Sometimes I sit and sigh and then begin to cry,
|
| 'Cause the gal that I love has said her last good-bye.
|
| There’s a change in the ocean, change in the deep blue sea.
|
| I’ll tell you now, there ain’t no change in me,
|
| 'Cause I’m in love with that gal -- will always be.
|
| I can read her letters, but I sure can’t read her mind.
|
| Yes, she said she was in love with me, but she was lyin' all the time
|
| Well, now I know my poor love was blind.
|
| Now I got the crazy blues,
|
| Since my baby went away.
|
| I ain’t got time to lose,
|
| I must find her today.
|
| I’m gonna do like a madman, get some horse,
|
| Get myself a gun and shoot myself a couple.
|
| My love has been refused,
|
| Now I got the crazy blues.
|
| Went down to the railroad, put my head on the track.
|
| Yeah, I thought about my gal, and I snatched it quickly back.
|
| Well, she’s gone, she’s gone, she give me the sack.
|
| Well, the doctor’s gonna do all he can,
|
| That’s what he’s gonna need for the undertaker man,
|
| 'Cause my love has been refused,
|
| Now I got the crazy blues. |
