Slave To The Blues |
| Ain’t robbed no train, ain’t done no hanging crime |
| Ain’t robbed no train, ain’t done no hanging crime |
| It’s just that i’m a slave to the blues, even 'bout that man of mine |
| Blues do tell me, do I have to die a slave |
| Blues do tell me, do I have to die a slave |
| Do you hear me screaming, you’re going to take me to my grave |
| If I could break these chains, and let my worried heart go free |
| If I could break these chains, and let my worried heart go free |
| Well it’s too late now, the blues have made a slave of me |
| You see me raving, you hear me crying |
| You see me raving, you hear me crying |
| Oh lord, this wounded heart of mine |
| Folks i’m a‑grieving, from my head to my shoes |
| I’m a good‑hearted woman, but still i’m chained to the blues |
