Ma Rainey — Those All Night Long Blues Take 1

[Verse 1] I haven't slept for nearly a week 'Cause my man and I don't speak There's no reason why I should be treated this way 'Cause the way I worry, I soon will be old and gray [Verse 2] Don't wanna do nothin' that's wrong I can't stand this treatment long Just laid and suffer, cry and sigh all night long 'Cause the way I worry, Lordy, it sure is wrong [Chorus] All night long, all night long There's been one man on my mind Can't sleep a wink at night for cryin' All night long, Lord, my worries just renews And I suffer with those all night blues [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] All night long, all night long There's been one man on my mind Can't sleep at night for toil and cryin' All night long, Lord, my worries just renews And I've suffered from them all night blues
