Hellhound On My Trail by Robert Johnson Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1937

[Verse 1]
I got to keep movin', I got to keep movin'
Blues fallin' down like hail, blues fallin' down like hail
Umm mmm mmm mmm
Blues fallin' down like hail, blues fallin' down like hail
And the days keeps on worryin' me
There's a hellhound on my trail, hellhound on my trail
Hellhound on my trail

[Verse 2]
If today was Christmas Eve, if today was Christmas Eve
And tomorrow was Christmas Day
If today was Christmas Eve and tomorrow was Christmas Day
Aw, wouldn't we have a time, baby?
All I would need my little sweet rider
Just to pass the time away, huh huh, to pass the time away

[Verse 3]
You sprinkled hot foot powder, mmm mmm, around my door
All around my door
You sprinkled hot foot powder all around your daddy's door, hmm hmm hmm
It keep me with ramblin' mind, rider every old place I go
Every old place I go
[Verse 4]
I can tell the wind is risin' the leaves tremblin' on the tree
Tremblin' on the tree
I can tell the wind is risin', leaves tremblin' on the tree
Hmm hmm hmm mmm
All I need's my little sweet woman and to keep my company, hey hey hey hey
My company
