Ma Rainey Southern Blues
House catches fire : ain't no water around
Throw your trunk out the window : let it burn on down
I went to the Gypsy : to have my fortune told
He said doggone you girlie : doggone your bad‑luck soul
I turned around : went to the Gypsy next door
She say you can get a man : anywhere you go
Let me be your rag doll : until your China comes
If he beats me ragging : he's got to rag it some
