Bad Moon Risin' 

" I  see a bad moon risin

I see trouble on the way

I see earthquake and the lightnin'

I see bad times today 

Don't go out tonite they're bound to take your life

There's a bad moon on the  rise"

Laughing At Life

" Don't mind the raindrops

Wait till the rain stops

Lose all your blues laughing at life

No road is lonely

If you will only

Lose all your blues laughing at life "

Blues My Naughty Sweetie Gives To Me 

"There are blues that you get from loneliness

And there are blues that you get from pain

And there are blues when you're lonely for your one and only

The blues you can never explain 

And there are blues that you get from sleepless nights,

But the meanest Blues, I feel 

They're the blues that I've got on my mind

I mean the ones are the meanest kind

Blues my naughty sweetie gives to me. "

St Louis Blues

"St Louis woman with her diamond rings

She drags her man around

By her apron strings

Was not for powder

Or this long black wavy hair

The girl I love wouldn't go nowhere, nowhere"

Don't Ask Me No Questions

" Well here you go again

 Askin' where I bin

Way that you treat me

Sure a doggone sin

Gotta cut you out

Cut you down to size

Don't ask me no questions

You wont here no lies "
