Mr. Scrapper's Blues Songtext
von Scrapper Blackwell

I got up this mornin′ with the blues rollin' across my mind
I got up this mornin′ with the blues rollin' across my mind
They seem to keep me bothered, baby, and worried all the time

Once I loved a woman, but she didn't mean me no good
Once I loved a woman, but she didn′t mean me no good
She gave me so much trouble that I had to move from her neighborhood


Oh baby, I ain′t got nobody now
Oh baby, I ain't got nobody now
When I think about it, I don′t need nobody, nohow

Tell me, baby, what you want me to do
Tell me, baby, what you want me to do
I'm tryin′ to make some money to send back home to you

Today has been a, a long old lonesome day
Today has been a, a long old lonesome day
I have left my baby but I sure can't stay away
