Merle Haggard — Blue Yodel No. 6 lyrics

Lyrics

One of these mornings i’m sure gonna leave this town
One of these mornings i’m sure gonna leave this town
'Cause a trifling woman sure keeps a good man down
Yes, she left me this morning midnight was turning day
She left me this morning midnight was turning day
I didn’t have no blues till my good gal went away
I got the blues like midnight moon shining bright as day
I got the blues like midnight moon shining bright as day
I wish a tornado would blow my blues away
Here come them dobro
It’s like in 1930
When a man is down and out a woman don’t want him round
Hey, when a man is down and out a woman don’t want him round
But when a man’s got money he’s the sweetest guy in town
A woman will follow you right to the jailhouse door
Hey, a woman will follow you right to the jailhouse door
Then she’ll laugh and tell you that you can’t fuss and fight no more
I got the blues like midnight moon shining bright as day lord lord
I got the blues like midnight moon shining bright as day
I wish a tornado would blow my blues away
Yodel le-ee yodel le-ee e-ee e-ee…
