| I woke up this morning: blues all around my bed
|
| I never had no good man: I mean to ease my aching head
|
| Well, pretty near all night long
|
| Well I swear before God: the man I’m loving is doing wrong
|
| Well I’m going away: swear the time ain’t long
|
| If you don’t believe I’m leaving daddy: count them days I’m gone
|
| You done caused mc to weep baby: and I swear you done caused me to moan
|
| Well you know by that rider: that I ain’t going to be here long
|
| Well: what evil have I done
|
| Well it must be something: my man have heard before he gone
|
| Lord I’m going to get drunk: and I’m going to walk the streets all night
|
| Because the man that I’m loving: I swear he sure don’t treat me right |
