|
| I grabbed my suitcase, I took off up the road

| Oh, when I got there she was laying on the cooling board
|
| Well, I walked up close I looked down in her face
|
| Good old girl got to lay here till judgement day
|

|
| Yes, the good old girl got to lay here till judgement day
|
| Aw, sure now. |
| I’m feelin' low down this evenin'
|
| Oh, my woman so black she stays apart of this town
|
| Can’t nothing go when the poor girl is around
|
| My black mama stays apart of this town
|
| Oh, can’t nothing go when the poor girl is around
|
| Oh, some people tell me the worried blues ain’t bad
|
| It’s the worst old feeling that I ever had
|
| Some people tell me the worried blues ain’t bad
|
| But it’s the worst old feeling, Lord I ever had
|
| Mmm, I fold my arms and I walked away
|
| That’s all right mama, your trouble will come some day
|
| I fold my arms, Lord I walked away
|
| Yeah, that’s all right mama, your trouble will come some day |
