Lyrics for Four O'Clock Blues
I woke up this morning, clock was striking four I woke up this morning, my clock was striking four I thought about my baby, she knockin' on my door Tell me, mama, what more can I do? You tell me, baby, what more can daddy do? An' I tried so hard, to get along with you I never loved (at?) all, hope I never will I never loved (at?) all, I hope I never will I never loved (at?) all, I hope I never will And if the??? rolling cross my mind If the??? rolling cross my mind It keeps me worried, bothered all the time I'm going to sing this verse, and I ain't gonna sing no more Gonna sing this verse, ain't gonna sing no more When I left home, my clock was striking four Goodbye my darling, honey fair you well Goodbye my darling, honey fair you well Goodbye my baby, honey fair you well
