Crazy Blues - Catherine Russell

I can't sleep at night I can't eat a bite

'Cause the man I love he don't treat me right

He makes me feel so blue I don't know what to do

Sometimes I sit and sigh and then begin to cry

He went away never said goodbye

I can read his letters but I sure can't read his mind

Thought he was loving with me he's leaving all the time

So now I see my poor love was blind

Now I got the crazy blues since my baby went away

I ain't got no time to lose I must find him today

Now the doctor's gonna do all that he can

But what he's gonna need is the undertaker man

I ain't got nothing but bad news now I got the crazy blues

I went down to the railroad lay my head on the track

Thought about my baby and had to snatched it back

My baby's gone and give me the sack

So now I got the crazy blues since my baby went away

I ain't got no time to lose I must find him today

I'm gonna do like a China-man go and get some hop

Get myself a gun and shoot myself a cop

I ain't had nothing but bad news now I got the crazy blues
