High Sherif Blues |
Get in trouble at Belzoni |
There ain’t no use a screamin' and cryin' |
Get in trouble in Belzoni |
There ain’t no use a screamin' and cryin' |
Mr. Will will take you back |
To Belzoni jail house flyin' |
Le' me tell you folksies |
How he treated me |
Le' me tell you folksies |
How he treated me |
An' he put me in a cellar |
Just as dark as it could be |
There I laid one evenin' |
Mr. Purvis was standin' 'round |
There I laid one evenin' |
Mr. Purvis was standin' 'round |
Mr. Purvis told Mr. Will |
To let poor Charley down |
It takes booze and blues, Lord |
To carry me through |
Takes booze and blues, Lord |
To carry me through |
But it did seem like years |
In a jail house where there is no boo' |
I got up one mornin' |
Feelin' awe, hmm |
I got up one mornin' |
Feelin' mighty bad, hmm |
An' it might not a been |
Them Belzoni jail I had |
(Blues I had, boys) |
While I was in trouble |
Ain’t no use a screamin' |
When I was in prison |
It ain’t no use a screamin and cryin' |
Mr. Purvis the onliest man |
Could ease that pain of mine |
