Big Feeling Blues - Ma Rainey

All these many years I've been pleadin' for a man

How come I can't get me a real Monkey man

I'm not no triflin Woman

I've been lookin' for a man I can call my own

Been married many times but they left my home

Ah big feelin' blues worst I ever had

I've got the big feelin' blues I mean I've got them bad"

"If you're lookin' for a brown come get this chocolate cream

I'm a big kid-man - just out of my teens"

"Ah big feelin' blues worst I ever had

I've got them big feelin' blues I mean I've got them bad"

"Unlucky with my Yellow

Unlucky with my brown

The black b**ches keep on throwin' me down'

"Ah big feelin' blues worst I've ever had

I've got the big feelin' blues I mean I've got them bad"

"If you need a good man why don't you try me

I sure can put you out of your misery"

"Ah big feelin' blues worst I've ever had

I've got the big feelin' blues I mean I've got them bad

There's a whole lot left what's left is good

Give me a chance honey I'll make you change your neighbourhood

Ah big feelin' blues worst I've ever had

I've got the big feelin' blues I mean I've got them bad"
