Got The Blues 2471-2 by Blind Lemon Jefferson Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well the blues come to Texas, lopin' like a mule
Well the blues come to Texas, lopin' like a mule
You take a high brown woman, man, she's hard to fool
[Verse 2]
You can't ever tell what a woman's got on her mind
Man, you can't tell what a woman's got on her mind
You might think she's crazy 'bout you, she's leavin' you all the time
[Verse 3]
She ain't so good lookin', and her teeth don't shine like pearl
She ain't so good lookin', and her don't shine like pearl
But that nice disposition carries that woman on through the world
[Verse 4]
I'm goin' to the river, gonna carry my rockеr chair
Gonna go to the river, carry my rocker chair
Gonna ask that gal [?], thе worried blues reach here?
[Verse 5]
I think I heard my good gal callin' my name
Hey, hey, good gal callin' my name
She can call so loud, but she calls so nice and plain
[Verse 6]
I was raised Texas, was schooled in Tennessee
I was raised Texas, schooled in Tennessee
Now sugar, you can't make no fat mouth out of me
[Verse 7]
[?] a woman act funny, quit you for another man
[?] a woman acts funny, quittin' you for another man
She ain't gon' look at you straight, but she's always raisin' sand
Well the blues come to Texas, lopin' like a mule
Well the blues come to Texas, lopin' like a mule
You take a high brown woman, man, she's hard to fool
[Verse 2]
You can't ever tell what a woman's got on her mind
Man, you can't tell what a woman's got on her mind
You might think she's crazy 'bout you, she's leavin' you all the time
[Verse 3]
She ain't so good lookin', and her teeth don't shine like pearl
She ain't so good lookin', and her don't shine like pearl
But that nice disposition carries that woman on through the world
[Verse 4]
I'm goin' to the river, gonna carry my rockеr chair
Gonna go to the river, carry my rocker chair
Gonna ask that gal [?], thе worried blues reach here?
[Verse 5]
I think I heard my good gal callin' my name
Hey, hey, good gal callin' my name
She can call so loud, but she calls so nice and plain
[Verse 6]
I was raised Texas, was schooled in Tennessee
I was raised Texas, schooled in Tennessee
Now sugar, you can't make no fat mouth out of me
[Verse 7]
[?] a woman act funny, quit you for another man
[?] a woman acts funny, quittin' you for another man
She ain't gon' look at you straight, but she's always raisin' sand
