Blind Lemon Jefferson - Wartime Blues lyrics

Artist: Blind Lemon Jefferson

album: Blues Hits


"What you gonna do when they send your man to the war?
What you gonna do, send your man to the war?
What you gonna do when they send your man to the war?"
"I'm gonna drink muddy water, gonna sleep in a hollow log"
Ain't got nobody, I'm all here by myself
Got nobody, all here by myself
Got nobody, all here by myself
Well, these women don't care but the men don't need me here
Well, I'm goin' to the river, gonna walk it up and down
Goin' to the river, walk it up and down
Goin' to the river, walk it up and down
If I don't find Parthena, I'm gonna jump overboard and drown
If I could shine my light like a headlight on some train
If I could shine like a headlight on some train
If I could shine like a headlight on some train
I would shine my light in Colorado Springs
Well, they tell me that southbound train had a wreck last night
Lord, that southbound train had a wreck last night
Lord, that southbound train had a wreck last night
Sugar, the section foreman ain't treating your railroad right
Well, the girl I love and the one I crave to see
Woman I love, one I crave to see
Woman I love and the one I crave to see
Well, she's livin' in Memphis and the fool won't write to me
I said, little woman, what have I said and done?
Easy mama, what I've said and done?
Easy mama, what have I said and done?
You're treatin' me like my trouble have just begun
