Pea Vine Blues Lyrics

Charley Patton Pea Vine Blues

I think I heard : the Pea Vine when she blowed
Blowed just like : my rider getting on board


Well the levee sinkin' : Lord you know I ain't going to
stay
I'm going up the country : mama in a few more days

Yes you know it you know it : you know you done done me
wrong


Yes I cried last night : and I ain't going to cry no more
But the Good Book tell us : you got to reap just what you
sow


Stop your way of living : and you won't have to cry no
more

I think I heard : the Pea Vine when she blowed
She blowed just like : she wasn't going to blow no more
