Preaching Blues |
Down in Atlanta G A |
Under the viaduct every day |
Drinkin' corn and howlin' «Hurray!» |
Piano’s playin' till the break of day; |
But as I turned my head |
I loudly said; |
Preach therm blues |
Sing them blues |
They certainly sound good to me! |
I’ve been in love for the past six months |
And I ain’t done worryin' yet! |
Moan them blues |
Holler them blues |
Let me convert your soul! |
'Cause just a little spirit of the blues tonight; |
Let me tell you girls that your man ain’t treating you right! |
Let me tell you, I don’t mean no wrong |
I will learn you somethin' if you listen to this song! |
I ain’t here to try to save your soul |
Just want to teach you how to save your good jelly roll! |
Goin' on down the line a little further now |
There’s a-many a poor woman down; |
Read on down to chapter nine |
Women must learn how to take their time! |
Read on down to chapter ten |
Takin' other women’s men, you are doin' a sin! |
Sing 'em, sing 'em, sing them blues |
Let me convert your soul! |
Now one sister by the name of Sister Green |
Jumped up and done a shimmy you ain’t never seen! |
Sing 'em, sing 'em, sing them blues |
Let me convert your soul! |
