Dark Clouds A-Rising |
| Yeah-eay |
| Lord, Lord, ooh, Lord |
| Yeah, baby, hey |
| Lord, oh Lord |
| I saw a dark cloud a-risin' |
| Wonder what’s gonna 'come of me? |
| I saw a dark cloud a-risin' baby |
| I wonder what’s gonna 'come a-me-e? |
| Down in this valley |
| As lonesome as I can be |
| Next time I start out to hoboin' |
| With my baby by my side, right here |
| Next time I start the hoboin' |
| I’m 'onna have my baby by my side |
| Yon' box car is bumpin' |
| It’s jarrin' at my brains |
| Yon' box car is bumpin', baby |
| And Lord, be jarrin' my brains |
| I might get up in the mo’nin |
| I might catch a passenger train |
| Yeah, don’t come here runnin' |
| Baby, a-screamin' an cryin' |
| Don’t ya come here runnin' |
| Honey, screamin' an cryin' |
| Don’t come here runnin' |
| Baby, screamin' an cryin' |
| Now, you got a home, darlin' |
| Long as I’ve got mine |
| I’m goin' by the pawn shop |
| 'On put my watch in pawn |
| I’m goin' by the pawn shop |
| I’m-a put my watch in pawn, on my own |
| No more, nobody tell me |
| How long my baby’s been gone |
| (guitar) |
| I’m washin' my jumper, darlin' |
| Starch my *overhauls |
| Hey, wash my jumper, baby |
| Starch my overhauls |
| I might get up in the mo’nin |
| I’m 'on catch that Cannonball |
| Hey, hey-ey |
| It’s bye-bye, bye-bye, baby |
| Hey-ey |
| And bye-bye, bye, bye, baby |
| I’m goin' away, babe |
| But I won’t be gone for long |
| Piece workmen outfits as 'overhauls' (real men!) |
| Some say, 'overalls') |
