Dreaming the Blues Songtext
von John Lee Hooker

My baby left me this morning
People just about four o′clock
My baby left me this morning
People just about four o'clock
She left me dreamin′, dreamin'
People then I woke up crying

Me and my baby don't get along so well
We don′t do a doggone thing but fuss and fight all
Most all the time, she left me to dream
People dream most all the time


Ever since my baby left me
I don′t do a doggone thing but dream
Yes, my nightmares are killing me now

You know I lay down dreamin'
People, God knows that I wake up crying

Yes, since my baby′s been gone
People, I just can't eat a bite
I′m gonna get up in the morning
Going down that lonesome road
I don't find my baby
People, I won′t be back no more
