Lonesome Blues Lyrics

Ida Cox Lonesome Blues

The blues came down my alley : and stopped right at my
door
They made me feel : like I've never felt before

I'm a good‑hearted woman : never done nobody wrong
But the better I treat my daddy : the worse we get along

If you don't want me daddy : please tell me what to do
I've never loved nobody daddy : like I'm loving you

I've got ten little puppies : twelve little shaggy hound
It takes all twenty‑two : to run my good man down
