Long Lonesome Blues 1054 by Blind Lemon Jefferson Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I walked from Dallas, I walked to Witchita Falls
I say I walked from Dallas, I walked to Witchita Falls
After I lost my sugar, that was no walk at all

[Verse 2]
Women see you comin', man, go get their rocker chair
Women see you comin', go get their rocker chair
"I wanna fool this man and make out he's welcome here"

[Verse 3]
So cold in China, the birds can hardly sing
So cold in Chinee, birds can hardly sing
You didn't make me mad 'til you soak my diamond ring

[Verse 4]
Hey, mama, mama, papa, papa 'deed double do love you, doggone it
Somebody’s talkin' to you, mama, papa 'deed double do love you
What you cryin' 'bout, sugar? Papa don't care what you do

[Verse 5]
I know my baby, she gon' jump and shout
I say I know my baby, she gon' jump and shout
When she gets the letter, Lemon has rolled them few days out
[Verse 6]
Tеll me what's the matter? [?] I can't gеt no mail
Would you tell me what's the matter? Papa Lemon can't get no mail
Mama dreamt last night, son, a black cat's crossed your trail

[Verse 7]
I got up this morning, the blues all 'round my bed
I got up this morning, the blues all 'round my bed
Fixing to eat my breakfast, and the blues all in my bread
