Delta Blues

Son House

Mm, I'm going to be bad no more 
I said I declare I ain't 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 
Mm I'm going to leave south end of town 

I went in my room and I sat down and cried 
Mm 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 
Mm 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 
Ooh, 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
