Empty Bed Blues
Bessie Smith
He came home one evening with his spirit way up high
What he had to give me, made me ring my hands and cry
He give me a lesson that I never had before
He give me a lesson that I never had before
When he got through teaching me, from my elbow down was sore
He boiled my first cabbage and he made it awful hot
He boiled my first cabbage and he made it awful hot
When he put in the bacon, it overflowed the pot
