Rocks In My Bed
My heart is heavy as lead
Because the blues has done spread
Rocks in my bed
Of all the people I see
Why do they pick on poor me?
And put rocks in my bed
All night long I weep
So, how can I sleep
With rocks in my bed?
There's only two kinds of people I can't understand
There's only two kinds of people I can't understand
That's a deceitful woman
And a hard-faced man
She took my man away
And ain't gon' bring him back
She took my man away
And ain't gon' bring him back
She's lower than a snake down in a wagon track
I got rocks in my bed
I got rocks in my bed
Rocks in my bed
I got rocks in my bed
Under-loved, over fed
My man's gone, so instead
I got rocks in my bed
Under-loved, over fed
My man's gone, so instead
I got rocks in my bed
Because the blues has done spread
Rocks in my bed
Of all the people I see
Why do they pick on poor me?
And put rocks in my bed
All night long I weep
So, how can I sleep
With rocks in my bed?
There's only two kinds of people I can't understand
There's only two kinds of people I can't understand
That's a deceitful woman
And a hard-faced man
She took my man away
And ain't gon' bring him back
She took my man away
And ain't gon' bring him back
She's lower than a snake down in a wagon track
I got rocks in my bed
I got rocks in my bed
Rocks in my bed
I got rocks in my bed
Under-loved, over fed
My man's gone, so instead
I got rocks in my bed
Under-loved, over fed
My man's gone, so instead
I got rocks in my bed
