Empty Bed Blues (Parts 1 & 2)

I woke up this morning
 With an awful aching head
 I woke up this morning
 With an awful aching head
 My new man had left me
 Just a room and an empty bed
 Bought me a coffee grinder
 Got the best one I could find
 Bought me a coffee grinder
 Got the best one I could find
 So he could grind my coffee
 'Cause he had a brand-new grind
 He's a deep-sea diver
 With a stroke that can't go wrong
 He's a deep-sea diver
 With a stroke that can't go wrong
 He can touch the bottom
 And his wind holds out so long
 He knows how to thrill me
 And he thrills me night and day
 Oh, he knows how to thrill me
 He thrills me night and day
 He's got a new way of loving
 Almost takes my breath away
 Oh, he's got that sweet something
 And I told my girlfriend Lou
 He's got that sweet something
 And I told my girlfriend Lou
 But the way she's ravin'
 She must have gone and tried it too

 When my bed get empty
 Make me feel awful mean and blue
 When my bed get empty
 Make me feel awful mean and blue
 My springs are gettin' rusty
 Sleepin' single like I do
 Bought him a blanket
 Pillow for his head at night
 Bought him a blanket
 Pillow for his head at night
 And I bought him a mattress
 So he could lay just right
 He came home one evening
 With his spirit way up high
 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 teachin' 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
 When you get good lovin'
 Never go and spread the news
 It'll build up to cross you
 And leave you with them empty bed blues
