My mama done tol' me, when I was in knee-pants
My mama done tol' me, " Son a woman'll sweet talk"
And
give ya the big eye, but when the sweet talkin's done
A woman's a two-face, A worrisome thing who'll
leave ya to sing the blues in the night
Now the rain's a-fallin', hear the train's a-callin,
"Whooee!"
(My mama done tol' me) Hear dat lonesome whistle blowin' 'cross the trestle, "Whooee!"
(My
mama done tol' me) A-whooee-ah-whooee ol' clickety-clack's a-echoin' back th' blues in the night
The
evenin' breeze'll start the trees to cryin' and the moon'll hide its light when you get the blues in
the night
Take my word, the mockingbird'll sing the saddest kind o' song, he knows things are wrong,
and he's right
From Natchez to Mobile, from Memphis to St. Joe, wherever the four winds blow
I been
in some big towns an' heard me some big talk, but there is one thing I know
A woman's a two-face, a
worrisome thing who'll leave ya to sing the blues in the night
My mama was right, there's blues in
Harold Arlen (Hyman Arluck), born in New York City in 1905 and died in Los Angeles in 1986, was one of the most influential American composers of the 20th century. Arlen composed music for Broadway, Hollywood, and popular music in general. His characteristic style combines catchy melodies with complex harmonies, often with a touch of blues and jazz. Among his most famous works are "Over the Rainbow", soundtrack of the film "The Wizard of Oz" (1939), which won an Oscar in 1940, and "Blues in the Night", a song that became a jazz classic. Arlen collaborated with some of the greatest American lyricists, including E.Y. Harburg and Ira Gershwin. His music has been performed by artists such as Frank Sinatra, Billie Holiday, and Ella Fitzgerald. Harold Arlen is considered one of the pillars of 20th-century American music.
