Back Water Blues - Original |
Well, it rained five days |
And the skies turned dark as night |
Well, it rained five days |
And the skies turned dark as night |
And trouble’s takin' place in the lowland that night |
Well, it was thunderin', it was lightnin' |
And the wind began to blow |
Well, it was thunderin', it was lightnin' |
And the wind began to blow |
Yes, in blues and trouble |
Makes a poor girl wonder where she wants to go Yes, they rolled a little ball |
About five miles across the park |
Yes, they rolled a little ball |
About five miles across the park |
Yes, I packed all my clothes |
Then they rolled me all along |
Yes, I wait and I stood |
Upon some high old lonesome hill |
Well, I wait and I stood |
Upon some high old lonesome hill |
Then I looked down on that old shack |
That old shack where I used to live |
