I woke up this morning with a awful aching head
I woke up this morning with a awful aching head
My new man had left me, just a room and a empty bed
Bought me a coffee grinder that's the best one I could find
Bought me a coffee grinder that's the best one I could find
Oh he could grind my coffee, cause he had a brand new grind
He's a deep sea diver with a stroke that can't go wrong
He's a deep sea diver with a stroke that can't go wrong
He can stay at the bottom and his wind holds out so long
He knows how to thrill me and he thrills me night and day
Oh he knows how to thrill me, he thrills me night and day
He's got a new way of loving, almost takes my breath away
Lord he's got that sweet somethin' and I told my girlfriend Lou
He's got that sweet somethin' and I told my girlfriend Lou
From the way she's raving, she must have gone and tried it too
(Part 2:)
When my bed get empty make me feel awful mean and blue
When my bed get empty make me feel awful mean and blue
My springs are getting rusty, sleeping single like I do
Bought him a blanket, pillow for his head at night
Bought him a blanket, pillow for his head at night
Then I bought him a mattress so he could lay just right
He came home one evening with his beret way up high
He came home one evening with his beret way up high
What he had to give me, make me wring my hands and cry
He give me a lesson that I never had before
He give me a lesson that I never had before
When he got to teachin' me, from my elbow down was sore
He poured my first cabbage and he made it awful hot
He poured my first cabbage and he made it awful hot
When he put in the bacon, it overflowed the pot

Bessie Smith, known as "The Empress of the Blues", was an American blues singer born on April 15, 1894, in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and died on September 26, 1937, in Clarksdale, Mississippi. Considered one of the greatest blues artists of all time, Smith dominated the music scene of the 1920s and 1930s with her powerful voice, emotional performances, and magnetic stage presence. Born into poverty, Bessie began singing on the streets as a child. Her musical career took off in the 1920s when she joined Columbia Records, releasing numerous hits that became blues standards such as "Downhearted Blues", "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out" and "St. Louis Blues". Smith was a pivotal figure in popularizing blues music among mainstream audiences and helped break down racial stereotypes associated with the genre. Her influence on American music has been immense, inspiring generations of blues, jazz, and soul artists.
