Just tell me, baby
Just tell me, baby
What can i do
To change your mind?

Hey, hey
Baby can i change your mind?
I got the freight train blues
The tracks is outta line

You got a man in the east
An a man in the west
Jus' sittin' here worryin'
Who you love the best?

Hey, hey
What can i do to change your mind?
I got the blues for you, baby
You keep me worried all the time

You say you love me
I believe in you
You kind of quit me
What mo' can i do?

Hey, hey
Baby, can i change yo' mind?
I got the blue for you, baby
You keep me worried all the time

'now boy, you know i've got
The blues now'
'play 'em for me, now'

(piano & guitar)

'yas, yas, yas, yas'

My mama got 'em
My papa got 'em
My sister told me
That she had them, too

Hey, hey
Mama, what can i do?
Some old day you will want me
An i won't care a thing about you.
