These are the lyrics to two of my songs


Down Home Blues

written by: Perry Bradford 

I never felt 
So lonesome before; 
My friend has quit me;
He's gone for sure;
He broke my heart,
For I loved him true;
So now I'm worried, 
Lonesome and blue. 
I've got the blues on my mind,
And I just feel like crying all the time. 

Woke up this morning, the day was dawning, 
And I was feeling all sad and blue, 
I had nobody to tell my troubles to; 
I felt so worried, 
I didn't know what to do. 

But there's no use in grievin', because I'm leavin', 
I'm broken-hearted and Dixie-bound; 
I been mistreated, ain't got no time to lose. 
My train is leaving, 
And I got the down-home blues. 

Woke up this morning, the day was dawning, 
And I was feeling all sad and blue, 
Lord, I had nobody to tell my troubles to;
I felt so worried, 
I didn't know what to do.

But there's no use in grievin', because I'm leavin', 
I'm broken-hearted and Dixie-bound; 
Lord, I been mistreated, ain't got no time to lose.
My train is leaving,
And I got the down-home blues.

Lady Luck Blues

written by: Weber / Williams 

Bad luck has come to stay 
Trouble never end 
My man has gone away 
With a girl I thought was my friend 
I'm worried down with care 
Lordy, can't you hear my prayer 

Lady Luck, Lady Luck 
Won't you please smile down on me 
There's the time, friend of mine
I need your sympathy 
I've got a horseshoe on my door
I've knocked on wood till my hands are sore 
Since my man's done turned me loose 
I've got those Lady Luck blues, I mean 
I've got those Lady Luck blues 

Lady Luck, Lady Luck 
Won't you please smile down on me 
There's the time, friend of mine
I need your sympathy 
I've got his picture turned upside down 
I've sprinkled goofer dust all around 
Since my man is gone I'm all confused 
I've got those Lady Luck blues
Find my good man 
I've got those Lady Luck blues
