Statesboro Blues

Blind Willie McTell

Key <C>

Wake up mama

Turn your lamp down low

Have you got the nerve to drive

Papa McTell from your door

(My) Mother died and left me wreckless

Daddy died and left me wild, wild, wild

No I'm not good looking

But I'm some sweet woman's angel child

She's a might mean woman

Do me this away

When I leave this time

Pretty mama going away to stay

(I) Once loved a woman

Better than I ever seen

Treated me like I was a king

And she was a dog gone queen

Sister tell your brother brother tell your aunt

Aunty tell your uncle uncle tell my cousin now cousin tell my friend

Going up the country mama don't you want to go

May take me a fair gal (brown) may take one or two more

Big Eighty (Aidy?) left Savannah Lord it did not stop

You ought to see that fireman when he got that boiler hot

Reach over in the corner mama and me my travelling shoes

And you know by that

Sister got em Autny got em Brother Friend I got em

Woke up this morning got them Statesboro Blues

I looked over in the corner Grandma and Grandpa got em too
