Rocks In My Bed — Ella Fitzgerald

My heart is heavy as lead

Because the blues has done spread

Rocks in my bed

Of all the people I see

Why do they pick on poor me

And put rocks in my bed

All night long I weep

So how can I sleep

With rocks in my bed

Theres only two kinds of people

I cant understand

Theres only two kinds of people

I cant understand

Thats a deceitful woman

And a hard faced man

She took my man away

And aint goin bring him back

She took my man away

And aint goin bring him back

Shes lower than a snake down in a wagon track

(bridge)

I got rocks in my bed

I got rocks in my bed

Rocks in my bed

I got rocks in my bed

Under-loved, over-fed

My mans gone, so instead

I got rocks in my bed

Under-loved, over-fed

My mans gone, so instead

I got rocks in my bed
