Blues Before Sunrise
(by Leroy Carr)
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, now babe, a feeling I do despise.
I have to leave, leave you baby, because you know you done me wrong.
I have to leave you baby, because you know you done me wrong.
I'm gonna pack up and leave you darling and break up my happy home.
I have to leave, leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all alone.
I'm gonna leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all alone.
I'm gonna pack up and leave you darling because you know you done me wrong.
Well now goodbye, goodbye baby, I'll see you on some rainy day.
Well now goodbye baby, I'll see you on some rainy day.
You can go ahead now little darling, 'cause I want you to have your way.

And I'm the only one here as they bury your hide
And this is the last time I'll be by your side
Well the world is one soul fewer
The preacher says the last rites so well
Says you're going to Heaven and not to Hell
But he has to say that and I know damn well
That you're Satan bound
REFRAIN:
So if you go to Hell
would you get me something nice
Maybe a T-Shirt or maybe a hat
or maybe some loaded dice
And if you go to Hell
would you at least send me a card
So I'll know how you're doing
And I'll know where you are<
