WRITERS HANK MILLS, WALTER HAYNESS





When you wake up in the mornin' and you're sick your head to toe

No need to get a doctor cause the doc he won't know

How to take away the hurtin' that's been a tossin' you around

You say the blues ain't nothin' but a woman let no good man down

Hit your finger with a hammer and the pain ain't the same

There ain't nothin' like a woman to drive a good man insane

She's gonna keepin' you in mis'ry like a flee on a hound

Cause the blues ain't nothin' but a woman let no good man down

[ guitar - piano ]

When you been out a walkin' in the drizzlin' rain

You gonna hear everybody callin' out her name

Go find yourself a river jump in and drown

Cause the blues ain't nothin' but a woman let no good man down
