Lonnie Johnson - You Don't See Into The Blues Like Me (1926) lyrics

Ah, people, you don't see into the blues like me.

Ahhhhh, you don't see into the blues like me.

I can see further into the blues, than a fish can in the deep blue sea.

I worked for you sweet woman, when the snow was above my knees.

I worked for you sweet woman, when there was snow above my knees.

And now the worst you can do for me, that is the best for me.

I'm a man like this, I don't throw stone for stone.

I'm a man like this, I don't throw stone for stone.

Every woman in this world 's, bound to miss the good man when he's gone.
