Back O'town Blues

Ella Fitzgerald

9

I had a woman

Livin' way back o' town

Yeah she treated me right

Never let me down

But I wasn't satisfied

I had to run around

Now she's gone and left me

I'm worried as can be

Oh I've searched this world all over

Wonderin' where she could be

I would ask that she forgive me

And maybe she'll come back to me

**SPOKEN**(But I doubt it)

I'm lonesome an blue

And I've learned a thing or two

Oh fellas here's a tip

I'm gonna pass on down to you

Never mistreat your woman

Cause it's gonna bounce right back on you
