Lyrics Big Feeling Blues - Ma Rainey

Big Feeling Blues

«All these many years I’ve been pleadin' for a man
How come I can’t get me a real Monkey man?
I’m not no triflin' woman
I’ve been lookin' for a man I can call my own
Been married many times but they left my home
Ah, big feelin' blues, worst I ever had
I’ve got the big feelin' blues I mean I’ve got them bad
If you’re lookin' for a brown, come get this chocolate cream
I’m a big kid-man — just out of my teens
Ah, big feelin' blues, worst I ever had
I’ve got them big feelin' blues, I mean I’ve got them bad
Unlucky with my yellow, unlucky with my brown
The black bitches keep on throwin' me down'
Ah, big feelin' blues, worst I’ve ever had
I’ve got the big feelin' blues, I mean I’ve got them bad
If you need a good man why don’t you try me?
I sure can put you out of your misery
«Ah, big feelin' blues, worst I’ve ever had
I’ve got the big feelin' blues, I mean I’ve got them bad
There’s a whole lot left, what’s left is good
Give me a chance, honey, I’ll make you change your neighbourhood
Ah, big feelin' blues, worst I’ve ever had
I’ve got the big feelin' blues, I mean I’ve got them bad"
