Blues Ain't Nothin'

(Hank Mills - Walter Hayness - Lovender)



When you wake up in the mornin'

And you're sick from your head to toe

No need to get a doctor

'Cause the doc he won't know.



How to take away the hurtin'

That's been a tossin' you around

You say the blues ain't nothin' but

A woman let no good man down.



Hit your finger with a hammer

And the pain ain't the same

There ain't nothin' like a woman

To drive a good man insane.



She's gonna keep you in mis'ry

Like a flee on a hound

'Cause the blues ain't nothin' but

A woman let no good man down.



--- Instrumental ---



When you been out a walkin'

In the drizzlin' rain

You gonna hear everybody

Callin' out her name.



Go find yourself a river

Jump in and drown

'Cause the blues ain't nothin' but

A woman let no good man down...
