Evenin' air blues

Folks, I come up North

Cause they told me de North was fine

I come up North

Cause they told me de North was fine

Been up here six months

I'm about to lose my mind.

This mornin' for breakfast

I chawed de mornin' air

This morin' for breakfast

Chawed de mornin' air

But this evenin' for supper,

I got evenin' air to spare

Believe I'll do a little dancin

Just to drive my blues away

A little dancin'

To drive my blues away,

Cause when I'm dancin'

De blues forgets to stay.

But if you was to ask me

How the blues they come to be,

Says if you was to ask me

How the blues they come to be

You wouldn't need to ask me:

Just look at me and see!
