Bessie Smith - Empty Bed Blues, Pt. 1 Lyrics

Lyrics Empty Bed Blues, Pt. 1 - Bessie Smith



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 he's raving, he must have gone and tried it too
