Up The Country Blues (Live)

歌詞

Hey hey mama Run tell your papa Go tell your sister Run tell your auntie That I'm going up the country Don't you want to go I need another half a dozen To take them on my ragtime show When I was leaving I left some folks a grieving I left my friend a moaning I left my man a crying He knew he didn't want me He had no right to stall He treated me low down and dirty He's bound to reap what he done sowed He knocked me and kicked me He stomped and abused me He knocked and cursed me He treated me dirty Even asked me would a matchbox Hold my dirty clothes? He treated me low down and dirty He's bound to reap what he done sowed I told him to gimme that coat I bought him That shirt I bought him Those shoes I bought him Those socks I bought him Cuz he knew he didn't want me He had no right to stall I told him pull of that that hat I bought him And let his nappy head go bald My mama got em My papas got em My sisters got em My auntie had em When I woke up this morning Had the up the country blues When I looked over in the corner My grandma had em too
