Lyrics Crazy Blues - Barbara Dane, Original Mix

Crazy Blues

I can’t sleep at night, I can’t eat a bite
'Cause the one I love just won’t treat me right
It makes me feel so blue
I don’t know what to do
Sometimes I sit inside
Then I begin to cry
'Cause my daddy said his last goodbyes
Oh I can read his letters, but I sure can’t read his mind
I thought he was lovin' me, but he was leavin' all the time
And now I see that my poor love was blind
Now I got the crazy blues
Since my daddy went away
Ain’t got no time to lose
'Cause I must find him today
Well the doctor’s gonna do
All that he can
But what he’s gonna need is a undertaker man
It had nothin' but bad news
Mama’s got the crazy blues
Now I got the crazy blues
Since my daddy went away
Ain’t got no time to lose
'Cause I must find him today
Well the doctor’s gonna do
All that he can
But what he’s gonna need is a undertaker man
It had nothin' but bad news
Mama’s got the crazy blues
Oh, yes, mama’s got the crazy blues
