Weeping Willow Blues - Bessie Smith[00:00:01]
I went down to the river sat beneath the willow tree[00:00:12]
The dew dropped on those willow leaves and it rolled right down on me[00:00:24]
And that's the reason I've got those weepin' willow blues[00:00:34]
I went up on the mountain high as any girl could stand[00:00:57]
And looked down on the mean town that took away my lovin' man[00:01:08]
And that's the reason I've got those weepin' willow blues[00:01:18]
I heard the whistle blowin' the fireman ring the bell[00:01:41]
They're takin' away that willow tree that give me this weepin' spell[00:01:53]
And that's the reason I've got those weepin' willow blues[00:02:03]
When you're broken hearted and your man is out of town[00:02:15]
Go to the river take the chains and sit down[00:02:21]
And if he don't come back to you I'll tell you what to do[00:02:25]
Just jump right overboard 'cause he ain't no more to you[00:02:30]
Folks I love my man I kiss him mornin' noon and night[00:02:36]
I wash his clothes and keep him clean and try to treat him right[00:02:41]
Now he's gone and left me after all I tried to do[00:02:46]
The way he treats me girls he'll do the same to you[00:02:51]
That's the reason I've got those weepin' willow blues[00:02:57]
