C & O Blues

歌詞

Did you ever wake up, between midnight and day Did you ever wake up, between midnight and day And felt for your rider, she done eased away Fourteen long years, C and O run by my door Fourteen long years, C and O run by my door My fair brown told me this morning, she didn't want me no more If you don't want me baby, what makes you wine and cry If you don't want me baby, what makes you wine and cry You put that thing on me mama, and let a black child die Which a-way which a-way, did the C and O leave your town Which a-way which a-way, did the C and O leave your town She's gone west baby, Capital Creek Junction bound My mama told me baby, two long years ago My mama told me baby, two long years ago If you fool with that little woman, you'll have nowhere to go Want all of you men, to clearly understand Want all of you men, to clearly understand Take a Alabama woman, sure going to quit you for another man I love you baby, tell the whole round world I do I love you baby, tell the whole round world I do I love you baby, don't care what you do
