Jim Crow Blues

歌詞

I'm tired of being Jim Crowed, gonna Leave this Jim Crow town Doggone my black soul, I'm sweet Chicago bound Yes I'm leaving here from this old Jim Crow town I'm going up North where they say money grows on trees I don't give a doggone if my black soul is free I'm going where I don't need no baby I got a hat, got a overcoat, don't need nothing but you These old easy walkers going to give my ankles the blues But when my girl hears about this, oh, that will be sad news. I'm going up North, baby I can't carry you Ain't nothing in that cold up there a ?? can do I'm gonna get me a Northern girl, see that I am through with you Lord But if I get up there, weather don't suit, I don't find no job Go and tell that boss man of mine, Lord I'm ready to come back to my Jim Crow town
