Hey! Hey!
That's what the / Blues singers say.
Singing minor melodies / They laugh, / Hey! Hey!
My man's done left me, / Chile, he's gone away.
My good man's left me, / Babe, he's gone away.
Now the cryin' blues / Haunts me night and day.
Hey! . Hey!
Weary, / Weary, / Trouble, pain.
Sun's gonna shine / Somewhere / Again.
I got a railroad ticket, / Pack my trunk and ride.
Sing 'em, sister!
Got a railroad ticket, / Pack my trunk and ride.
And when I get on the train / I'll cast my blues aside.
Laughing, / Hey! . Hey!
Laugh a loud, / Hey! Hey!
