歌詞

1930 recording I got the Vicksburg Blues and I sing 'em and ache everywhere I go I got the Vicksburg Blues and I sing 'em and ache where I go And the reason I sing 'em is my baby didn't want me know more I got the Vicksburg Blues and I sing 'em and ache where I sleep I got the Vicksburg Blues and I sing 'em and ache where I sleep And the reason I sing 'em is to give my poor soul ease Now mama I ain't gonna be your lowdown dog no more And I don't like this old place, mama, and Lord and I never will And I don't like this old place, mama, and Lord and I never will All I can sit right here and look at Vicksburg on the hill 1976 recording Now when I went down Mulberry, boys and I turned up clay Now when I went down Mulberry, and boys and I turned up clay I was looking for my baby but she had moved away Some said she moved right on Walnut well, and some say she moved right on Pine Some said she moved right on Walnut, and some say she moved right on Pine Now wherever she will partner, she's restin' on my mind Now wherever she will partner, she's restin' on my mind Now just as soon as that train mama, well make up in the yard Now just as soon as that train mama, honey make up in the yard Now I'm Vicksburg board bound that's if them boys they don't have me barred
