You see me...

You see me ravin', you hear me crying,
Of Lawd, this lonely heart of maine,
Sometimes I'm grieving from my hat down to my shoes.
I'm a goodhearted woman that's a slave to the blues.

-- Ma Rainey, (Apr 26 1886-1939), US blues singer; The Mother of the Blues, was the first great black professional blues vocalist; she played vaudeville and established a recording career, 1920s.
