Misery Blues

I love my brownskin 'deed I do Folks I know you will tell me a thing or two I'm going to tell you what I went and done I gave him all my money just to have some fun He told me that he loved me, loved me so I would marry him, I wouldn't need to work no mo' Now I'm grievin' all the time Just because I didn't know that he was lyin' I'm such a fool, down in my shoes I've got those misery blues I've got to go to work now, get another start Work is the thing that's breaking my heart I've got those mean old misery blues
