Circle Round the Moon Songtext
von Charley Patton

Out on the road servin′ out my time
Out on the road servin' out my time
And the Delta women was tryin′ to run me down

How long, pray God, how long?
How long, how long, pray God, how long?
Can I be here rollin' when your man is gone?


I'm goin′ away, may get lonesome here
I′m goin' away, may get lonesome here
I′m goin' away, babe, may get lonesome here

I got up this morning, blues all ′round my bed
Got up this morning, blues all 'round my bed
I read a letter that my gal was dead

Eagle been here, built a nest and gone
Eagle been here, built a nest and gone
And you know by that I ain′t goin' be here long

Throw your arms round like circle round the moon
Throw your arms round like circle round the moon
Throw your arms round me like a circle round the moon
