Blue Spirit Blues - Original |
Had a dream last night |
That I was dead |
Had a dream last night |
That I was dead |
Evil spirits |
All around my bed |
The devil came |
And grabbed my hand |
The devil came |
And grabbed my hand |
Took me way down |
To that red hot land |
Mean blues spirits |
Stuck their forks in me |
Mean blues spirits |
Stuck their forks in me |
Made me moan |
And groan in misery |
Fairies and dragons |
Spitting out blue flames |
Fairies and dragons |
Spitting out blue flames |
Showing their teeth |
For they was glad I came |
Demons with their eyelash |
Dripping blood |
Demons with their eyelash |
Dripping blood |
Dragging sinners |
To their brimstone flood |
«This is hell», I cried |
Cried with all my might |
«This is hell», I cried |
Cried with all my might |
Oh, my soul |
I can’t bear the sight |
Started running |
'Cause it is my cup |
Started running |
'Cause it is my cup |
Run so fast |
Till someone woke me up |
