Ma Rainey — Stormy Sea Blues

[Verse 1] Rainin' on the ocean, it's stormin' on the sea Lord, rainin' on the ocean, it's stormin' on the sea The blues in that shower, stormin' down on me [Verse 2] I hear thunder, I'm caught out in the storm Lord, I hear thunder, I'm caught out in the storm Man I love done packed his grip and gone [Verse 3] I hear the wind blowin', I'm left here all alone I hear the wind blowin', I'm left here all alone That storm won't be over 'til my daddy come back home [Verse 4] I see the lightnin' flashin', I see the waves a-dashin', I'm tryin' to spread the news I feel this boat a-crashin', I'm tryin' to spread the news My man has done quit me and left me with the stormy sea blues
