Preachin´ the Blues, Part 2 Songtext
von Son House

Yeah, I′m gon' fold my arms, I′m gonna kneel down in prayer
Whoa, I fold my arms, gonna kneel down in prayer
When I get up, I'm gon' leave my preachin′ blues layin′ there

Now I met the blues this mornin', walkin′ just like a man
Oh, walkin' just like a man
I said, "Good mornin′, blues, now give me your right hand"


Now there ain't nothin′ now, baby, Lord that's gon' worry my mind
Oh, Lord, that′s gon′ worry my mind
I'm satisfied, I got the longest line

Oh, gotta stay on the job, I ain′t got no time to lose
Yeah, I ain't got no time to lose
I swear to God, I′ve got to preach these gospel blues
(Praise God almighty)

Oh, I'ma preach these blues and choose my seat and sit down
Whoa, I′ma preach these blues now and choose my seat and sit down
When the spirit comes up, I want you to jump straight up and down
