Texas Worried Blues Lyrics

Henry Thomas Texas Worried Blues

I've got the worried blues : Lord I'm feeling bad

I've got no one: tell my troubles to

You can box me up : and send me to my ma

If my ma don't want me : send me to my pa

If my pa don't want me : send me to my girl

If my girl don't want me : cast me in the sea

So the fish and the whales : make a fuss all over me

I'm going to build me : a heaven of my own

I'm going to give : all good‑time women a home

Get your hat and your coat : get shaking it all down the
line

Now fare thee my honey : fare thee
