empty bed blues
Singer:bette midler
with an awful achin' head. woke up this mornin'
with an awful achin' head. my new man left me. i'm just a bloom in an empty bed. now
i get to feelin' kind of mean and blue. when my bed gets empty
get to feelin' awful mean and blue. the springs are gettin' rusty
sleepin' single like i do. i bought me a coffee grinder
the best one i could find. you know that i bought me a brand new coffee grinder
the best one i could find
so he could grind my coffee. babe
i got a brand new grind. you gotta try
you gotta try. he was a deep sea diver
with a stroke that could not go wrong. deep
with a stroke that just could not go wrong. he could touch the bottom
and his wind held out so long. oh
made it awful hot. but when he slipped the bacon in
yeah. what a sweet man he was. i went and told my girlfriend lou. remember that old rag of a girl named lou?
real sweet man. i went and told my girlfriend lou. that way that girl is
she must have had a piece of it
too. and now when you get good lovin'
don't you spread the news. don't you spread the news. when you get it and it's good
you ought not to spread the news. because those gals will doublecross you and leave you
those gals will doublecross you
those gals will doublecross you
leave you with the empty bed blues!
