Tom Rushen Blues |
| Laid down last night, hopin' I would have my peace, eee |
| I laid down last night, hopin' I would have my peace, eee |
| But when I woke up, Tom Rushen was shakin' me |
| When you get in trouble, it’s no use to screamin' and cryin', hmm |
| When you get in trouble, it’s no use to screamin' and cryin', hmm |
| Tom Rushen will take you, back to the prison house flyin' |
| It were late one night, Halloway was gone to bed, hmm |
| It were late one night, Halloway was gone to bed, hmm |
| Mister Day brought whiskey taken from under Halloway’s head |
| An' it’s boozy booze, now, Lord, to cure these blues |
| It takes boozy boo', Lord, to cure these blues |
| But each day seems like years in the jailhouse where there is no boo' |
| I got up this mornin', Tom Day was standin' 'round |
| I got up this mornin', Tom Day was standin' 'round |
| If he lose his office now, he’s runnin' from town to town |
| Let me tell you folksies just how he treated me |
| Let me tell you folksies just how he treated me |
| Aw, he caught me yellin', I was drunk as I could be |
