Dirty Deal Blues Lyrics

Robert Wilkins Dirty Deal Blues

Early one morning : baby something was on my mind
I thinking about my welfare : and I just couldn't keep
from crying

Oh I cried one time : mama your daddy ain't going to cry
no more
Lord I made up in my mind pretty mama : honest great God
let you go

Goodbye pretty mama : oh baby fare thee well
Lord I'm afraid to meet you : in that other world
somewhere

Oh baby I'm so glad : that this whole round world do know
That every living creature : mmm reap just what they sow

That's the reason why you hear me crying : Lord please
have mercy on me
Because I don't want my woman : mmm reap no bad seed

That's the reason why I'm through telling her : about
her dirty deal
Please God : make my woman reap righteous seed
