If I had possession
Over judgment day
If I had possession
Over judgment day
Lord, the little woman I'm lovin' wouldn't
Have no right to pray
And I went to the mountain
Lookin' far as my eyes could see
And I went to the mountain
Lookin' far as my eye could see
Some other man got my woman and the -'a
Lonesome blues got me
And I rolled and I tumbled and I
Cried the whole night long
And I rolled and I tumbled and I
Cried the whole night long
Boy, I woke up this mornin'
My biscuit roller gone
Had to fold my arms and I
Slowly walked away
I didn't like the way she done
Had to fold my arms and I
Slowly walked away
I said in my mind, yo
Trouble gon' come some day
Now run here, baby
Set down on my knee
I wanna tell you all about the
Way they treated me
