Old Black Cat Blues (Jinx Blues) Songtext
von Kokomo Arnold

I believe that I got those black cat blues
I believe that I got those black cat blues
Lord if I win on Friday, please Saturday night I′m sure to lose

Yes the black cat blues mama ain't nothing but a doggone heart disease
Yes the black cat blues mama ain′t nothing but a doggone heart disease
Said I was broke and disgusted,
I didn't have no money for Christmas Eve


Yes this black cat blues mama don't mean no one man no good
Yes this black cat blues mama don′t mean no one man no good
Said all my friends done forgot me,
Everybody′s down on me in my neighbourhood

Lord some folks said blues and trouble
Nothing but evil running across your mind
Lord some folks said blues and trouble
Nothing but evil running across your mind
When you get to setting down thinking
About the black gal treated you so nice and kind

Oh if the black cat blues was money I would be rich as Henry Ford
Oh if the black cat blues was money I would be rich as Henry Ford
Lord if the black cat blues don't leave me
Mama, Lord I′ve got to get further down the road
