Cannon Ball Blues by Sloppy Henry Lyrics
One mor-, mornin' chilled out before the trees
It was-, mornin' chilled out before the trees
At the station, drowning, honey just out of New Orleans
Gettin' them railroad blues, mama, done got all in my bones
Them railroad blues, one morning, honey done got all in my bones
I thought about my brownie, who'd be all the way from home
When them blues got on me, got me just like a shower of rain
When them blues get on me, just like a shower of rain
Hon, you can call me so lonesome, cry [?]
Its a long time
This is your blues table, [?] please
This is your blues table, [?] please
Well, I want you to sit on my lap mama, give my poor heart ease
Train left Cincinnati, rolled and didn't stop
You 'aught see that Cannonball and [?]
Put on my jumper, went out on my overhauls
I'm gonna leave this town, oh, ha, on a train a'called the cannonball
It was-, mornin' chilled out before the trees
At the station, drowning, honey just out of New Orleans
Gettin' them railroad blues, mama, done got all in my bones
Them railroad blues, one morning, honey done got all in my bones
I thought about my brownie, who'd be all the way from home
When them blues got on me, got me just like a shower of rain
When them blues get on me, just like a shower of rain
Hon, you can call me so lonesome, cry [?]
Its a long time
This is your blues table, [?] please
This is your blues table, [?] please
Well, I want you to sit on my lap mama, give my poor heart ease
Train left Cincinnati, rolled and didn't stop
You 'aught see that Cannonball and [?]
Put on my jumper, went out on my overhauls
I'm gonna leave this town, oh, ha, on a train a'called the cannonball
