Good Man Blues by Edna Taylor Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In West Virginia, harvey bottom fair
I met my good man, he was always there
It seemed my love for him would never end
He quit me cold and I left to stay
I've gambled almost all my love away
I'm going back, I'm leaving town today

[Verse 2]
I'm going to West Virginia to find my good man, my good man there
I'm going to West Virginia to find my good man there
I'm going to West Virginia to find my good man there
Because when I don't have no money, he always treats me fair

[Verse 3]
The man I really love will even give me his last dime
The man I really love will even give me his last dime
The man I really love will even give me his last dime
So it's very plain to see that you cannot make no time

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
I'm going back to my good man, fall down on my knees and say
I'm going back to my good man, fall down on my knees and say
I'm going back to my good man, fall down on my knees and say
"Take me back now, pretty papa, and you can have your way"
