M and O Blues Songtext
von Charley Patton

I leave here, I′m gonna catch that M and O
Now when I leave here, I'm gonna catch that M and O
I′m going way down South where I ain't never been before

Once I had a notion, Lord, and I believe I will
Once I had a notion, Lord, and I believe I will
I'm gonna build me a mansion out on Decatur Hill


Now it′s all of you men ought to be ashamed of yourself
It is all of you men ought to be ashamed of yourself
Going ′round swearing before God, you got a poor woman by yourself

I start to kill my woman 'til she laid down ′cross the bed
I start to kill my woman 'til she laid down ′cross the bed
And she looked so ambitious 'til I took back everything I said

And I asked her how about it, Lord, and she said alright
And I asked her how about it, Lord, and she said alright
But she never showed up at the shack last night
