I like it    I don't like it

I've been blue all day

My man's gone away

He left his mama cold

For another gal, I'm told

I've tried to treat him kind

I thought he would be mine

That man I hate to lose

That's why mama's got the blues

The man that I love he has left me in this town

The man I love has gone and left me in this town

And if it keeps on snowin' I will be Gulf Coast bound

Mailman passed but he didn't leave no news

The mailman's passed but he didn't leave no news

I tell the world he left me cryin' those Gulf Coast blues

These men up north honey sure do make me tired

These men up north they surely do make me tired

They've got a mouth full of gimme, and a handful of much obliged
