Black Spatch Blues
[Verse]
Baby, let me talk to you
I'm feelin' awfully blue
I've got the meanest kind of blues
You'll say from Black 'Spatch News
But I'm tired of you and that old bluff
You're makin' your sweetie rough
All this trouble I didn't begin
But I can surely end
[Chorus]
Babe, I heard that you were going away
Yes, I heard that you were tired of me and going to stay
You've been tellin' it all around
That you had sweeties all over town
If I didn't like it, I could quit
'Cause you knew of many more that you could get
Babe, you said it, 'cause it sounds like you
Let me warn you, no tellin' what I might do when I'm blue
You can go if you choose
But the world will certainly read bad news
When I tell you my troubles, you say I've got the Black 'Spatch blues
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
You can go if you choose
But the world is certainly gonna read bad news
'Cause when I tell you my troubles, you say I've got the Black 'Spatch blues
