Moonshine Blues Songtext
von Bessie Smith
Moonshine Blues Songtext
Drunk all night, babe, drunk the night before
But when I get sober, I ain′t gonna drink no more
Because my friend left me standin' in my door
My head′s goin' 'round and around, babe, since my baby left town
I don′t know if the river′s runnin' up or down
But there′s one thing certain, mama's going to leave town
You′ll find me reelin' and a-rockin′, howlin' like a hound
I'll catch the first train that′s goin′ southbound
Oh stop, you'll hear me sayin′
Stop right to my brain, oh stop that train
Oh, stop that train so I can go back home again
Herе I'm upon my knees, play that again for me
′Cause I'm about to be losin′ my mind
Can't stand up, can't sit down
Thе man I love has left this town
Girls, I feel like screamin′, I feel like cryin′
I've been mistreated and I don′t mind dyin'
I′m goin' home, goin′ to settle down
Goin' to stop my runnin' around
Tell everybody that comes my way
I′ve got the moonshine blues, I say
I′ve got the moonshine blues
But when I get sober, I ain′t gonna drink no more
Because my friend left me standin' in my door
My head′s goin' 'round and around, babe, since my baby left town
I don′t know if the river′s runnin' up or down
But there′s one thing certain, mama's going to leave town
You′ll find me reelin' and a-rockin′, howlin' like a hound
I'll catch the first train that′s goin′ southbound
Oh stop, you'll hear me sayin′
Stop right to my brain, oh stop that train
Oh, stop that train so I can go back home again
Herе I'm upon my knees, play that again for me
′Cause I'm about to be losin′ my mind
Can't stand up, can't sit down
Thе man I love has left this town
Girls, I feel like screamin′, I feel like cryin′
I've been mistreated and I don′t mind dyin'
I′m goin' home, goin′ to settle down
Goin' to stop my runnin' around
Tell everybody that comes my way
I′ve got the moonshine blues, I say
I′ve got the moonshine blues
