Damned Soul Blues
03:02
|
|||
well I'm going to somebody who will wipe my hands clean
who will set my damned soul free
well I walked down that road and the fog rose over me
then the sun blinded all I see
so I prayed to the Lord above, but He don't want me
does Hell await my eternity?

Preachin' The Blues
04:52
|

Well I'm gonna get religion
gonna join the baptist church
I'm gonna become a baptist
So I won't have to work
I'm gonna preach my blues
Choose my seat and sit down
Gonna do like a prisoner
Roll my time card out
I met the blues one morning
He was walking like a man
I said 'Good morning, blues
Give me your right hand.'
I wish I had me
A heaven of my own
I'd give all you pretty women
A nice and happy home
Now the blues is a low down shaking chill
If you ain't never once had them
Then I hope you never will
I had me religion
each and every day
But the whiskey and the women
well they would not let me pray

Draw cool water from that deep dark well
Then bring it home in that wooden pail
Open your window darling let me in
I did you wrong, I won't do it again
Lay my body down in cotton sheets
and smell the pines through that howlin breeze

Liquor Man Blues
03:36
|
|||
midnight came and I was dead and gone
I did not know if she was coming home
the morning fell like a pouring rain
Was not the same as yesterday
I'm crying
the liquor man done struck again
and don't you know I could use a friend
driving in the dead of night
I can tell things ain't right..
cause things ain't right

Riverbend Blues
03:10
|
|||
I went down to the river, waded in the bank
yea I scooped down low and I grabbed myself some clay
Barbed wire lays where the water hits your toes
You won't find me there, I believe I had to go
That old river bend, it runs so smooth and clear
We can jump in the water and float away from here

Mean Uptown Mama
03:03
|
|||
babe do you remember when I came up to your door?
I could see it in your eyes that you did not love me anymore
can't you see me crying, feel me when I weep and moan?
I ain't had no other lover, mama since you have been gone
rain was falling down, I followed my two feet west
well I lay down in the evening, blues was sleeping in my bed
man was in your kitchen, I made my way back home
but when I arrived there was a ringing on my own telephone
tell me pretty mama who do you think it could be?
it was that mean uptown mama, crying how she was missing me

well I was wondering everybody, askin where my baby go?

Pony Blues
03:06
|

baby saddle up my pony, hitch up my black mare
gonna find me a rider baby in the world somewhere
hello central, whats the matter with your line
come a storm last night and tear the whole wire down
i've got a brand new shetland, already trained
better jump in that saddle and tighten up on your reins
took my baby to meet that morning train
but the blues fell down like showers of rain
i've got something to tell you baby, if I get the chance
that I don't wanna marry, I just wanna be your man

Log Cabin Blues
03:51
|
|||
Come on over to my log cabin, ain't nobody there me
come on over to my log cabin, can't wait for you to see
My log cabin sits on the hill, if you never been then you sure enough will
My log cabin baby it's so fine, you should see that log cabin in the summertime
We can have a little whiskey, we can have a little wine
We can all get together and have a real good time
You can have yourself a smoke and let it go to your head
You can wake up in the morning and go right back to bed
I got a girl about 5'4", she gives me all her love and comes back for more
