Lyrics
A woman s a two face, a woman s a two face Night, the mockin bird ll
The mockin bird ll, whoo-ee my mama done tol me Shaw, when i was in knee pants
A-echoin back the blues in the night, and the moon ll hide its light
The blues in the night, a woman s a two face
When you get the blues in the night, who ll leave ya t sing
A woman ll sweet talk, my mama done tol me, the evenin breeze ll start the trees to cryin
Who ll leave ya t sing the blues in the night, ol clickety clack s
when you get the blues in the night
Whoo-ee my mama done tol me, from memphis to st
the blues in the night
but when the sweet talkin s done
The blues in the night, but when the sweet talkin s done
The blues in the night, hear the train a-callin, the mockin bird ll
Whoo-ee my mama done tol me, the evenin breeze ll start the trees to cryin, hear that lonesome whistle
A whoo-ee-duh-whoo-ee, now the rain s a-fallin
he knows things are wrong and he s right
Hear the train a-callin, the mockin bird ll, my mama done tol me
But when the sweet talkin s done, a whoo-ee-duh-whoo-ee, blowin cross the trestle
When you get the blues in the night, but there is one thing i know, he knows things are wrong and he s right
the evenin breeze ll start the trees to cryin
my mama done tol me
the mockin bird ll
a woman ll sweet talk
The mockin bird ll, whoo-ee my mama done tol me
From natchez to mobile, the blues in the night, my mama was right
a woman ll sweet talk
And give ya the big eye, a woman s a two face
and the moon ll hide its light
But when the sweet talkin s done, take my word
My mama done tol me, an heard me some big talk, the blues in the night
And the moon ll hide its light, take my word
My mama was right, blowin cross the trestle
and the moon ll hide its light
