Black Water Blues - Bessie Smith[00:00:00]
Written by:Smith[00:00:01]
When it rains five days and the skies turn dark as night[00:00:04]
When it rains five days and the skies turn dark as night[00:00:14]
Then trouble's takin' place in the lowlands at night[00:00:23]
I woke up this morning can't even get out of my door[00:00:32]
I woke up this morning can't even get out of my door[00:00:41]
There's been enough trouble to make a poor girl[00:00:51]
Wonder where she want to go[00:00:54]
Then they rowed a little boat about five miles 'cross the pond[00:01:00]
Then they rowed a little boat about five miles 'cross the pond[00:01:09]
I packed all my clothes throwed them in[00:01:18]
And they rowed me along[00:01:21]
When it thunders and lightenin' and the wind begins to blow[00:01:27]
When it thunders and lightenin' and the wind begins to blow[00:01:36]
There's thousands of people ain't got no place to go[00:01:45]
Then I went and stood upon some high old lonesome hill[00:01:54]
Then I went and stood upon some high old lonesome hill[00:02:03]
Then looked down on the house were I used to live[00:02:12]
Backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go[00:02:21]
Backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go[00:02:30]
'Cause my house fell down and I can't live there no more[00:02:39]
Mmm I can't move no more[00:02:49]
Mmm I can't move no more[00:02:57]
There ain't no place for a poor old girl to go[00:03:06]
