Dream Blues by Ma Rainey Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Had a dream last night and the night before
Had a dream last night and the night before
Gonna get drunk now, I won't dream no more
[Verse 2]
Dreamed my man didn't treat me right
Lord, I dreamed my man didn't treat me right
Packed my clothes in a [?] and walked the streets all night
[Verse 3]
I saw my man fall on his knees and cry
Lord, I saw my man fall on his knees and cry
"Take me back, mama, or else I'll die"
[Verse 4]
Lord, I wonder what am I to do
Lord, Lord, I wonder what am I to do
When everybody try to mistreat you
[Verse 5]
My heart is achin', mama feel like cryin'
Lord, my heart is achin', mama feels like cryin'
Since I had that dream last night, mama don't mind dyin'
Had a dream last night and the night before
Had a dream last night and the night before
Gonna get drunk now, I won't dream no more
[Verse 2]
Dreamed my man didn't treat me right
Lord, I dreamed my man didn't treat me right
Packed my clothes in a [?] and walked the streets all night
[Verse 3]
I saw my man fall on his knees and cry
Lord, I saw my man fall on his knees and cry
"Take me back, mama, or else I'll die"
[Verse 4]
Lord, I wonder what am I to do
Lord, Lord, I wonder what am I to do
When everybody try to mistreat you
[Verse 5]
My heart is achin', mama feel like cryin'
Lord, my heart is achin', mama feels like cryin'
Since I had that dream last night, mama don't mind dyin'
