Bloodshot Eyes - Original Mono - Wynonie Harris

Now just because your pretty, and you think you’re mighty wise

You tell me that you love me, then you roll those big brown eyes

When I saw you last week, your eyes were turnin' black

Go find the guy that beat you up — ask him to take you back

Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me

I can tell you’ve been out on a spree

Well it’s plain that you’re lyin'

When you say that you’ve been cryin'

Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me

I used to spend my money, to make you look real sweet

I wanted to be proud of you when we walked down the street

Now don’t ask me to dress you up, in satin and in silk

Your eyes look like two cherries in a glass of bottled milk

Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me

I can tell you’ve been out on a spree

Well it’s plain that you’re lyin'

When you say that you’ve been cryin'

Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me

So I guess our little romance has finally simmered down

You should join the circus, you make a real good clown

Your eyes look like a roadmap, I’m scared to smell your breath

You better shut your peepers before you bleed to death

Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me

I can tell you’ve been out on a spree

Well it’s plain that you’re lyin'

When you say that you’ve been cryin'

Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me

Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me
