Early this mornin', baby, blues was knockin' at my door
Early this mornin', baby, blues was knockin' at my door
Well I had so much of trouble, I didn't know where to go
Well, if I could only read, read my little baby's mind
Lord, if I could only read, read my little baby's mind
Well, I wouldn't be worried and bothered all the time
Baby, you know you don't love me, please stop jivin' me
You know you don't love me, why don't you stop jivin' me
Well, you know it's better to be without you and to live on in misery
Blues, go away and don't ever return no more
Blues, go away, don't ever return no more
You bring me the worst old feeling I ever had in my life before
