Gov't Mule - Blues Before Sunrise Lyrics

Gov't Mule Lyrics

"Blues Before Sunrise"
(originally by Leroy Carr and Scrapper Blackwell)

I have the blues before sunrise, tears standing in my eyes
I have the blues before sunrise, tears standing in my eyes
It was a miserable feeling baby
Feeling I do despise

Had to leave, leave you baby
Know you done me wrong
Had to leave you baby
Because you know you done me wrong
I gotta pack up my few things
Ooh, and down the road I'm gone

I have to leave you baby, leave you all alone
Leave you baby, leave you all alone
Well, I gotta pack up and leave you darling
You know you done me wrong

Well now goodbye, goodbye baby
See you some rainy day
Oh now, goodbye pretty baby
See you some rainy day
Now can I go ahead now
He let you have your way
