Drive Away Blues Lyrics

Blind Willie Mctell Drive Away Blues

I believe that if I had my sweet woman's heart : in my
hand in my hand
I believe I could teach her : how to treat a real good
man

I drink so much whiskey : I can't hardly talk
Well it's done addled on my brain : people I can't hardly
walk

How my poor heart weeped and worried : baby when you
drove me away
It was crying for poor boy McTell : some old rainy day

Climbing on the Lookout Mountain : look dived in Niagara
Falls
Seem like to me : I can hear my Atlanta mama call

Don't [fret, grieve] and worry : and don't [grieve, fret]
after me
Don't you scream and cry : because I'm going back to
Tennessee

Can't read and write : can't even spell my name
You drove me away : and drove my heart insane
