Lyrics
My heart is heavy as lead
Because the blues has 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?
That mean man of mine
He's gone
And he won't come back
That mean man of mine
He's gone
And he won't come back
That man is lower than a snake in a wagon track
I got rocks in my bed
Rocks in my bed
Rocks in my bed
Oh-oh-oh, rocks in my bed
Under-loved, over-fed
My man's gone, so instead
I got rocks in my bed
I got rocks in my bed
Rocks in my bed
Oh, rocks in my bed
Let me tell you, rocks in my bed
Under-loved, over-fed
My man's gone, so instead
I got rocks in my bed
