The Gin House Blues - Original |
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 |
