Statesboro Blues

Blind Willie McTell

[Verse 1]
Wake up mama, turn your lamp down low
Wake up mama, turn your lamp down low
Have you got the nerve drive me from your door?

[Verse 2]
Now Big Eighty left Savannah, lord, he could not stop
You ought to saw that coloured fireman when he got them boiler hot
Just reach over in the corner, mama, hand me my travelin' shoes
Oh Lord, my God, I've got them Statesboro blues

[Verse 3]
Papa tell your uncle, uncle tell your sister, sister tell your papa
Going up the country, wouldn’t you like to go?
Let me play this background, then I’ll take one or two more
Got mе them Statesboro blues
Oh Lord, my God, I'vе got them Statesboro blues

[Verse 4]
My mama died and left me reckless
Papa died and left me wild, wild wild
My mama died and left me reckless
Papa died and left me wild, wild wild
I’m not good lookin' but I'm some sweet women’s angel-child

[Verse 2]
Now Big Eighty left Savannah, lord, he could not stop
You ought to saw that coloured fireman when he got them boiler hot
Just reach over in the corner, mama, hand me my travelin' shoes
Oh Lord my God, I've got them Statesboro blues
