[00:00.00]Frosty Morning Blues - Bessie Smith
[00:13.77]How come I'm blue as can
[00:17.02]Be how come I need sympathy
[00:28.35]I know what's troubling me listen and you'll see
[00:39.09]Because the good man that
[00:45.38]I got left me all alone
[00:55.08]Woke up this morning at four
[01:01.24]When I heard him slamming my door
[01:08.54]Did you ever wake up on a frosty
[01:13.95]Morning and discover your good man gone
[01:22.55]Did you ever wake up on a frosty
[01:28.71]Morning and discover your good man gone
[01:36.68]If you did you'll understand
[01:40.17]Why I'm singing sad moanful songs
[01:50.43]Well he didn't provide and
[01:54.17]He wasn't handsome so he might not appeal to you
[02:04.01]Well he didn't provide and
[02:07.88]He wasn't handsome so he might not appeal to you
[02:17.92]But he gave me plenty loving
[02:21.35]And I never had to beg him too
[02:31.26]Now my damper
[02:32.60]Is down and my fire ain't burning
[02:38.10]And a chill's all around my bed
[02:45.06]My damper is down and my fire
[02:50.25]Ain't burning and a chill's all around my bed
[02:58.38]When you lose the man you love then
[03:02.10]A gal is just as good as dead
