DAVE BRUBECK
"Blues In The Dark"
(Count Basie / Jimmy Rushing)

Kind treatment make me love you, be mean and you'll drive me away
Kind treatment make me love you, be mean and you'll drive me away
You're gonna long for me, baby, one of these old rainy days

Did you ever dream, lucky baby, and wake up cold in hand?
Did you ever dream, lucky baby, and wake up cold in hand?
You didn't have a dollar, and somebody had your woman

Woman, raise your right hand, and swear that you've been true
Put it down
Yes, raise your right hand, baby, and swear that you've been true
Put it down
Say you've been a real good woman, like the good man I've been to you

Did you ever dream, lucky baby, and wake up cold in hand?
Did you ever dream, lucky baby, and wake up cold in hand?
You didn't have a dollar, and somebody had your woman, oh yeah

Tell the truth, man

Play it, Holme

Did you ever dream, lucky babe, and wake up cold in hand, oh yeah?
