Jinx Blues

Well, I got up this mornin', jinx all around, jinx all around, 'round my bed

And I say I got up this mornin', with the jinx all around my bed

Know I thought about you, an' honey, it liked to

kill me dead

Oh, look-a here now, baby, what you want me, what you want me, me to do?

Look-a here honey, I say, what do you want poor me to do?

You know that I done all I could, just tryin' to get along with you

You know, the blues ain't nothin' but a low-down shakin', low-down shakin', achin' chill

I say the blues is a low-down, old, achin' chill

Well, if you ain't had 'em, honey, I hope you never will

Well, the blues, the blues is a worried heart, is a worried heart, heart disease

Oh, the blues is a worried old heart disease

Look like the woman you be lovin', man, is so

doggone

hard to please

I'd rather be outdoors, walkin' up, walkin' up and down the road

I say, I'd rather be outdoors, I say, just walkin' up and down the road

Than to be layin' around here, workin' just for my board and clothes

Hey, look-a here, little girl, don't you cry, don't you cry, cry no more

I say, look-y here, darlin', honey, don't you try to cry no more

Well, when I leave this time (spoken: I'm gonna) hang

crepe

on your door
