rocks in my bed

fitzgerald, ella

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

there's only two kinds of people

i can't understand

there's only two kinds of people

i can't understand

that's a deceitful woman

and a hard faced man

she took my man away

and ain't goin' bring him back

she took my man away

and ain't goin' bring him back

she's lower than a snake down in a wagon track

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 man's gone

so instead

i got rocks in my bed

under-loved

over-fed

my man's gone

so instead

i got rocks in my bed
