Blind Willie Harper - Bobby Bare[00:00:00]

On a stone cold night in Memphis[00:00:07]

Willie Harper came to town[00:00:10]

With a blue tick hound at his heels[00:00:14]

And a dime in his shoe[00:00:17]

Uh he could make that guitar sing[00:00:21]

You should have heard that pavement ring[00:00:25]

When Blind Willie Harper played the blues[00:00:29]

And he'd sing hey Jenny[00:00:35]

Why'd you go and leave me[00:00:39]

All alone in the dark this way[00:00:40]

Hey Jenny[00:00:44]

Why'd you go and leave me[00:00:46]

With these blind man dues to pay[00:00:47]

And these blues to play[00:00:50]

In the scarlet light of Beal Street[00:01:06]

Willie Harper found a home[00:01:10]

A any song you name he don't refuse[00:01:13]

Sweet or dirty[00:01:21]

White or black[00:01:23]

Just drop a nickel in the hat[00:01:25]

And hear Blind Willie Harper play the blues[00:01:28]

And he'd sing hey Jenny[00:01:35]

Why'd you go and leave me[00:01:38]

All alone in the dark this way[00:01:39]

Hey Jenny[00:01:43]

Why'd you go and leave me[00:01:45]

With these blind man dues to pay[00:01:47]

And these blues to play[00:01:49]

Willie stops in the middle of the song[00:02:06]

As a love dealing lady walks by[00:02:09]

He says a you smell sweet[00:02:12]

Like someone I once knew[00:02:14]

Then he touches her face[00:02:20]

And some words are said[00:02:21]

And a knife blade shines[00:02:23]

And her blood runs red[00:02:25]

Blind Willie walks off singing the blues[00:02:28]

On a stone cold night in Memphis[00:02:35]

They took Blind Willie down[00:02:38]

They shaved his head[00:02:42]

Took away his shoes[00:02:45]

Now from a window of a Beal Street jail cell[00:02:50]

Sad as a whipperwill clear as a bell[00:02:54]

We heard Blind Willie Harper singing the blues[00:02:57]

And he'd sing hey Jenny[00:03:04]

Why'd you go and leave me[00:03:08]

All alone in the dark this way[00:03:09]

Hey Jenny[00:03:13]

Why'd you go and leave me[00:03:15]

With these blind man dues to pay[00:03:16]

And these blues to play[00:03:19]

We heard Blind Willie Harper singing the blues[00:03:56]
