Welfare Store Blues - Sonny Boy Williamson[00:00:00]
Now me and my baby we talked late last night[00:00:11]
And we talked for another hour[00:00:14]
She wanted me to go down to the welfare sto'[00:00:17]
And get a sack a-that welfare flour[00:00:20]
But I told her 'no'[00:00:22]
'Baby and I sho' don't wanna go'[00:00:25]
I said 'I'll do anything in the world for you[00:00:33]
I don't wanna go down to that welfare sto'[00:00:36]
Now you need to go get you some real white man[00:00:43]
You know to sign yo' little note[00:00:46]
They give ya a pair of them king-toed shoes[00:00:49]
I want no a-them pleat-back soldier coat[00:00:51]
But I 'no'told 'er[00:00:54]
'Baby and I sho' don't wanna go[00:00:57]
I say 'I'll do anything in the world for ya[00:01:04]
'But I don't wanna go down to that welfare sto'[00:01:07]

But I told 'er 'no'[00:01:55]
'Baby and I sho' don't wanna go[00:01:59]

Just as long as these times stay hard'[00:02:24]
And I told her 'yeah baby and I sho' won't have to go'[00:02:26]
