Confessin' the Blues

Confessin' the Blues - Wynonie Harris

Baby here I stand before you

With my heart in my hand

I put it to you mama

Hoping that you'll understand

Well baby

Mama please don't dog me round

I'd rather love you baby

Than anyone else I know in town

Because you're so nice and lovely

And you have such pleasant ways

If you take me to your heart

I'll be there the rest of my days

Well baby

Where you know wouldn't lie

If I don't love you baby

I swear I hope to die

Well baby

Don't you want a man like me

Well baby

Don't you want a man like me

You think about our future

Forget about your used to be

When my days are long and dreary

And the sun refuse to shine

I would never be blue and lonely

If I knew that you were mine

Well baby

You can make everything alright

Can I see you today baby

Or will it have to be tomorrow night

This is my confession mama

And it's sung by all your song

It proves that I'm in heaven

When you hold me in your arms

Well baby

You can help me for yourself

You was meant for me mama

I don't want nobody else
