J.C. Holmes Blues (Remastered 2016) - Bessie Smith[00:00:00]
Written by:Gus Horsley/Rr[00:00:02]
Listen people if you want to hear[00:00:07]
A story told about a brave engineer[00:00:14]
J.C. Holmes was the rider's name[00:00:21]
A heavyweight wheelman with a might fame[00:00:27]
J.C. said with a smile so fine[00:00:35]
Woman gets tired o' one man at a time[00:00:42]
Get two or three if you have to hide[00:00:48]
If the train go an' leave you got a mule to ride[00:00:55]
In the second cabin sat miss Alice Bry[00:01:03]
Goin' to ride with J.C. or die[00:01:10]
I ain't good looking and I don't dress fine[00:01:17]
But I'm a ramblin' woman with a ramblin' mind[00:01:22]
Just then the conductor hollered all aboard[00:01:31]
And the porter said we got our load[00:01:38]
Look a here son we oughta be gone[00:01:45]
I feel like ridin' if it's all night long[00:01:51]
J.C. said just before he died[00:01:59]
Two more roads he wanted to ride[00:02:06]
Everybody wondered what road it could be[00:02:12]
He said the southern pacific and the Santa Fe[00:02:18]
J.C. said I don't feel right[00:02:27]
I saw my girl with a man last night[00:02:34]
Soon as I get enough steam just right[00:02:41]
I've been mistreated and I don't mind dyin'[00:02:47]
