40 Days and 40 Nights - Muddy Waters

40 Days, and 40 nights

Since my baby left the town

Keep raining all day long

And it’ll rain for 40 more

She’s my life, I need her so

Why she left I just don’t know

40 Days, and 40 nights

Since I sat right down and cried

Keep raining all the time

But the river is running dry

Lord help me, it just ain’t right

I love that girl with all my heart

40 Days, and 40 nights

Since my baby broke my heart

Searchin' for her everywhere

Like a blind man in the dark

Girl can make a poor man rich

Break her heart, I don’t know which

I’m not rich, I’m heartbroken

40 Days, and 40 nights

Like a ship out on the sea

Break my heart every day

that my baby won’t come back to me

Lord gave love and love is right

I hope she come back home tonight
