The Gin House Blues |
| I’ve got a sad sad story today |
| I’ve got a sad sad story today |
| I’m goin' to the gin house when the whistle blows |
| My troubles come like rain |
| That’s all been poured before |
| My man keeps me cryin' all night |
| My man keeps me cryin' all night |
| I’m goin' to the gin house, sit there by myself |
| I mean to drown my sorrows |
| By sweet somebody else |
| I’ve got those worst kind of gin house blues |
| I’ve got those worst kind of gin house blues |
| I’ll make one trip there to seek to ease my mind |
| And if I do I’m gonna make it |
| My last time |
| It takes a good smart woman these days |
| It takes a good smart woman these days |
| To hold her man when these gals have got so many tearful ways |
| I mean to watch my man |
| Don’t care what these other gals say |
| I’ve got to see the conjure man too |
| I’ve got to see the conjure man too |
| Because these gin house blues is campin' 'round my door |
| I want him to drive them off |
| So they won’t come back no more |
