all alone 

for penny


it's 4:30 sunday morning in Detroit
& the famous coachman
has just made his change
from the blues to music

with a message, but i'm still
stuck here in my room
all alone, chest deep
in the blues

you're breaking my heart
you know, but why do you leave me
waiting up for you all night
& not even call me,

i know you got to be trying
to discourage my suit
& dampen my ardor, so i'm mad
as a wet hen, & feel so bad

just like a ballgame
on a rainy day, all alone
in my little bitty room
going out of my mind,

daffy as a motherfucking duck
to be so deep in love with you
oh baby, please send me
some kind of message in the night,

take these blues offa me
& let me make the change
back to you, I can't stand being alone
without you one more night
