Son House – Delta Blues lyrics
Mmmm, I'm going to be bad no more
I said I declare I aint going to be bad no more
When I leave this time baby I'm going to hang crepe on your door

Look it you darling, what do you want me to do
Look it ya darling, what do you want me to do
I've done all I could honey, just don't get along with you

Now look it here baby, please don't dog me round
Look it here honey, please don't you dog me round
Mmmm I'm going to leave south end of town

I went in my room and I sat down and cried
Mmmm went in my room and I sat down and cried
I didn't have no blues, but I just wasn't satisfied

Look it here darling, what do you want me to do
Look it here little girl, what do you want me to do
I've done all I could do darling, just don't get along with you

Well, I'm going to be bad no more
Mmmm I'm not going to be bad no more
When I leave her I'm going to hang crepe on your door

I cried last night all on love before
Oooo, all on love before
I'm going to change my way of livin, and I won't have to cry no more

The sun going to shine my back door some day
Sun going to shine my back door some day
Oh the wind gonna rise and blow my blues away
