Lyrics Sleep Talking Blues (Take 1) - Ma Rainey

Sleep Talking Blues (Take 1)

You gotta bad habit daddy
Talkin in your sleep
You gotta bad habit daddy
Talkin in your sleep
You talk so much some these nights
It should be worth one dollar a piece
Do all your talking daddy
Before you go to bed
Do all your talking daddy
Before you go to bed
If you speak out of turn
Your friend will help you be _____
When you talk in your sleep
Be sure your mamma’s not awake
When you talk in your sleep
Be sure your mamma’s not awake
You call another woman’s name
You think you wake up in a nice way
Do all your talking
Be careful as you can
Do all your talking
Be careful as you can
______________ bringin
______________ my man
I warned you daddy
Nice as a mamma could do
I warned you daddy
Nice as a mamma could do
You hear me talking to you
