Wanda Jackson - Midnight Turning Day Blues (Blue Yodel No.6) Lyrics

Wanda is giving me chills. I love this

I will always love you and never forget you.

Gorgeous woman with a hammer voice.

she was a beautiful and sexy lady !

Wanda is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame why not the country?

Jimmie Rodgers is really the grandfather of rockabilly music. Without him, country music would’ve never became what it did. No Jimmie, no hank, no Roy Acuff, no bill monroe, Hell, no Elvis or Jerry Lee Lewis. He was the best and still is. Wanda did him justice

hell - they always hung noodles on my ears - Michael Jackson - Michael Jackson - but it turns out Jackson is a Wanda. !!!

Hard life

Very much love to this wonderful woman

Hahaha, I fell in love with her when I was ten years old.

When I met Her in Branson we had an interview and she told me her first love was old Country but the money was in rockabilly

Sandy's sad song of spongebob xD <3

THAT folks is country.

Great singer and song!

Wanda is a sexy Mama.

She is absolutely beautiful! So wish she was my girl!!

She's 81 now so probably not quite as pretty as she once was.

A charming woman! 🌹

The songs are so beautiful and I love it

Sounds real good!

What a smokin' hottie

I think she's wonderful.

One of the best female singers ever, I use to watch Wanda on the Red Foley show on the Ozark Jubilee, back in the mid 50s, what a beauty

Love hearing a woman singing a Jimmy Rodgers song. I used to play this on my accordion. Now I know I played it way to fast.

Amazing lady. Great singer.

Esta buena canción la canto JIMMY RODGERS en el año 1929 y la versiono WANDA JACKSON en el año 1966

Wanda is from a time when American women Ruled the world. (no comment about today's so-called women)

I wished I was more familiar with her and her style! Was born in 1945 and missed out on her singing in her hay day!!

When 'Wanda' finally leaves us suddenly everyone will go, she was a legend. She is a legend.

all ways be fantastic thank youwanda

all ways will be fantastic

hands down, favorite version.

Emi Sunshine brought me here

me too!

Always loved this song.

So great. I understand she was considered risque back in the day.

But I love her. You go girl!!! ♥♥♥

I have a few of Wanda's LP's in my collection, mainly slow country ballads. I had no idea she ever did some Jimmie Rodgers covers.What a discovery! Just great. Many thanks for posting.

Wanda can yodel.

The good old days.

she id very good best ever

I didn't have no blues till my good man went away....

Wanda Jackson does Blue Yodel No.6 better than Jimmie Rodgers could ever have imagined it being done. Wanda, if ever you read this, many thanks for your Salt Lake City show, and for the after the show show at the Pride Club. You were great!

Kyler Campbell Amen!

I love Wanda, but Jimmie Rodgers wrote this and did it the best.

Wonderful Wanda!

IS SHE A FOX OR WHAT

a stone cold fox

She's hotern blue blazes

What a singer! Thank you for this.

One of The Lady's That Helped Country Music Go In Many Ways 

Indeed She was a super star !!!!

one of the most under  rated rockabilly/country artists.

+TheSicamousman I thought, she is named "Queen of Rockabilly", doesn't seem to be "underrated", or am I wrong??

Music!!

Special Lady, she was rockin' while the others were still in the crib, a leader all the other women just followed

I have 2 of her cd's of her music!!

, I really like your type of singing

Good voice and style all her own that was so ahead of the time!

i like this song just like when i was young , but still my favorite til now !!

This singer is fantastic... Yodeling? She has it down new fan here!

A Great Jimmie Rodgers Song.  Jimmie Rodgers was the singer to combine Country Msuic and Black Blues Music. Wanda Jackson does a great job on this song.

Just saw Wanda open for Cake last week.

Super Wanda!!

Beautiful remake of a  jimmy Rogers song .  She does a great job of it .

Larry Kunas Jimmie would be proud!

Wonderful music.

good  original country

That was back in the days when women were prettier, and sang better.

So true!

She taught Elvis how to kiss, he was in total awe of her.

Wish we had someone like this today...........................

we do. her name is EmiSunshine. Patty Loveless and Marty Stuart have both come out these last few weeks and said they think Emi is going to save/carry forward real country music. she's about to play the Grand Ole Opry for the 3rd time. she is 10.

My older brother George was lucky enough to see Wanda years ago.

Sounds a lot like The TB blues..Love it

I assume you are referring to the country singer Stonewall Jackson rather than the Confederate general Stonewall Jackson. (The general is the better known of the two.)

about the sexiest lady in music :)

Wow in STEREO... thanx!!

Yes I love All This Music......!!!!!!!!!!!

Another side of Wanda Jackson . . That's a Gem : >) Tnx

Came her by chance,,whom the hell is this beautiful woman,, the voice,,

Wish she'd sing more of his songs.

wanda has quite a few more yodels in her repertoire inc "`Jesus Put a Yodel in my Soul" "Then I Start to Yodel" & "Cowboy Yodel".

hank hamm, the book is $26.50 on amazon + free shipping. but yea, books, especially big thick ones have gotten pricey. kindle is definitely a good alternative...

I would love to have that book but it is a bit pricey at $ 37.00
for a paperback. The Kindle version is only 9.99 from Amazon.

Wanda is interviewed & profiled [with photo] in the new book YODEL IN HIFI: From Kitsch Folk to Contemporary Electronica: uwpress.wisc.edu/books/4594.htm

One person mistook 'Blue Yodel' for 'Blue Yoda'.

blues like midnight

Oh My God! Wanda rocks my world.
Saw her in Ventura this summer......

This song is cool.. tasty

Sounds plausible. I suspect that Jimmie Rodgers was inspired musically by the blues he heard his black railroad co-workers singing. The Carter Family is highly revered in country music, but Hank Williams, Ernest Tubb, and even Johnny Cash were more actively influenced by Jimmie Rodgers.

Is she going to do Jimmy Rodgers' whole Blues Yodel series? That would be fun.

Need to listen to original vinyl with good speakers to do it justice, great stuff!

She even Yodels sexy

Wow shes a Great Blue Yodeler.I like her yodeling songs better than her hits like Right Or Wrong,Im In The Middle Of A Heartache,which were good but these are GREAT.

I also grew up in Montana. Maybe that's why we like yodeling.

Oh this yodel brings back memories of my Montana youth. Had a wired thought, what if some rapper broke into a yodel riff in the middle of the rap. That would rattle some cages.

There's a performance of this song on her recent album, "The Party Ain't Over" produced by Jack White.

Stonewall is NOT dead, born 11/06/1932, STILL join' strong!

Nice stuff. She sure was pretty. I remember her in her prime and as I recall she was kind of a wild child in country music and was frowardness upon by some. I like her voice. Thanks for the post. Old Jimmy sure had some great stuff out. Another great who died way to young. My dad was an alcoholic but a nice gentle guy. He loved Jimmy Rodgers stuff ad bought old 78's when he should have been buying food for the family. Drowned when I was 2. My mom told me about him.

Love love love Wanda Jackson. I grew up on your music and now my daughter who is 18 just covered this song on youtube.... She loves you too!!! Would love to meet you!

@SpaceCowboy641
There's a country singer; a former Grand Ol Opry member, still very much alive if long past his career peak, named Stonewall Jackson. Don't count too much on common knowledge.

Wanda sings a good blues song too,sample(Weary Blues from Waiting)

those were natural beauties not the new plastic surgery freaks

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN IN EVERY WAY.

THE QUEEN.

Thanks for posting,,,,my kind of music,,,thank you miss Jackson...KOP...Bill

Great version, my favorite. Thanks for downloading. Couldn't find a Jimmie Rodgers version on YouTube. Is a Rodgers rendition available?
I play blues harmonica (cross harp) and Jimmie Rodgers tunes play real well. Real blues, even if it is labeled country. Interestingly, a scholarly paper on the origins of the blues puts forth the theory that the blues and country music crystallized in close to their current form in the Mississippi Delta area at about the same time, around 1900.

Wonderfull.

Wonderful yodel!!!

Thanks,Carters01. I called my vinyl supplier and bought Capitol ST 2606,"Wanda Jackson Salutes the Country Music Hall of Fame". She does classics by Hank Sr.,Ernest Tubb,Roy Acuff,and Jimmie Rodgers.

I can't find "Wanda Jackson sings Jimmie Rodgers" on her discographies. On what album does this song appear? Was it ever released as a 45? My collection must have it! Thanks.
