Jinx Blues Songtext
von Casey Bill Weldon

Well, the jinx on me, I can′t see the reason why
Well, the jinx on me, I can't see the reason why
But seem like these jinx sure oughta pass me by

That landlady come ′round my door this mornin', she began to sweep
She said, "Casey Bill, you'll have to find you some other place to sleep"
So the jinx on me, I can′t see the reason why
And seem like these jinx sure oughta pass me by


Well, well, I coudn′t sleep, I had no place to lay down
Well, I went to a railroad boxcar on the edge of town
So the jinx on me, I can't see the reason why
Seem like these jinx sure oughta pass me by

Well, well, I had it in my mind, I′d make this boxcar my home
But when I got there, freight train had taken this boxcar and gone
So the jinx on me, I can't see the reason why
Seem like these jinx sure oughta pass me by

Well, well, the only way I got my breakfast, I had to beat that garbage man
But when I got there this mornin′, he had moved the garbage can
So the jinx on me, I can't see the reason why
But seem like these jinx sure oughta pass me by
