Ma Rainey Misery Blues
I love my brownskin : indeed I do
But there was no use : *tell me thing or two*
I'm going to tell you : what I went and done
I give him all my money : just to have some fun
He told me that he loved me : loved me so
If I would marry him : I needn't to work no more
Now I'm grieving : almost dying
Just because I didn't know : that he was lying
I've got to go to work now : get another start
Work is the thing : that's breaking my heart
