Lyrics Chum Man Blues - Blind Blake

Chum Man Blues

I’m goin' to the river folks and take a great big jump
I’m goin' to the river folks and take a great big jump
I used to be a wise man, but a woman made me a chump
It sure is funny how hard a man can fall
It sure is funny how hard a man can fall
When he gets to thinkin' one woman has got it all
My baby throwed me out and I started walkin' down the tracks
My baby throwed me out and I started walkin' down the tracks
Then I went home and begged her to take me back
She ain’t no good, but I can’t quit her somehow
She ain’t no good, but I can’t quit her somehow
I used to be a wise cat but this woman has turned me down
She don’t act sweet.
she’s the mean and naggin' kind
She don’t act sweet.
she’s the mean and naggin' kind
She’s got a quiver, make a drunk man lose his mind
