Lyrics
I never felt so lonesome before
My friend has quit me, he’s gone for sure
He broke my heart for I loved him true
So now I’m worried, lonesome, and blue
I’ve got the blues on my mind
And I just feel like crying all the time
Chorus
Woke up this mornin’, the day was dawnin’
And I was feelin’ all sad and blue
I had nobody to tell my troubles to
I felt so worried, I didn’t know what to do
Chorus
But there’s no use in grievin’
Because I’m leavin’
I’m broken hearted and Dixie bound, lawd
I’ve been mistreated, ain’t got no time to lose
My train is waitin’ and
I’ve got the down home blues
