Preachin' the Blues - Bessie Smith[00:00:00]
Lyrics by:Bessie Smith[00:00:01]
Composed by:Bessie Smith[00:00:01]
Down in Atlanta[00:00:13]
GA under the viaduct ev'ry day[00:00:15]
Drinking corn and hollerin' hooray[00:00:23]
Pianos playing till the break of day[00:00:28]
But as I turned my head I loudly said[00:00:32]
Preach 'em blues sing them blues[00:00:41]
They certainly sound good to me[00:00:45]
I've been in love for the last six months[00:00:50]
And ain't done worrying yet[00:00:55]
Moan'em blues holler them blues[00:00:59]
Let me convert your soul[00:01:04]
'Cause just a little spirit of the blues tonight[00:01:08]
Let me tell you girls that your man ain't treating you right[00:01:13]
Let me tell you I don't mean no wrong[00:01:17]
I will learn you something if you listen to this song[00:01:22]
I ain't here to try to save your soul just[00:01:27]
Want to teach you how to save your good jelly roll[00:01:31]
Going on down the line a little further now[00:01:36]
There's many a poor woman down[00:01:40]
Read on down to chapter nine[00:01:44]
Woman must learn how to take their time[00:01:48]
Read on down to chapter ten[00:01:53]
Taking other women's men you are doing a sin[00:01:57]
Sing'em sing'em sing them blues[00:02:02]
Let me convert your soul[00:02:06]
Now one one sister by the name of Sister Green[00:02:27]
Jumped up and done a shimmy you ain't never seen[00:02:32]
Sing'em sing'em sing them blues[00:02:36]
Let me convert your soul[00:02:41]
