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! |
