Midnight Blues (Test) Songtext
von Bessie Smith

Daddy, daddy
Please come back to me
Daddy, daddy
Please come back to me

Your mama′s lonesome as she can be
You left me at midnight
Clocks were striking twelve
Left me at midnight
Clocks were striking twelve


To face this cruel world
All by myself
Woke up at midnight, sad and blue
Missed my daddy from my side
Left alone to bemoan my fate

That's why I′m sighing, crying
I just can't refuse
I feel so troubled, heartbroken, too
Woe and misery I can't hide
At twelve o′clock I unlock my hate
I′ve got the meanest kind
Lonesome midnight blues
