Blind Lemon Jefferson Long Lonesome Blues
Well the blues come to Texas : loping like a mule
You take a high brown woman : man she's hard to fool
You can't never tell : what a woman's got on her mind
You might think she's crazy about you : but she leaving
you all the time
Ain't so good‑looking : your teeth don't shine like
pearls
But that nice disposition : carry a woman all through the
world
I'm going to the river : going to carry my rocking chair
Going to ask that gal for a : *how* the worried blues
left here
I think I heard : my good gal call my name
She couldn't call so loud : but she calls so nice and
plain
I was raised in Texas : schooled in Tennessee
High‑stepper you can't make : no fatmouth out of me
Can't a woman act funny : quit you for another man
Can't go look down the street : but she's always raising
sand
