Hustlin' Blues Songtext
von Ma Rainey

It′s rainin' out here and tricks ain′t workin' tonight
It's rainin′ out here and tricks ain′t workin' tonight
I′m goin' home, I know I′ve got to fight

If you hit me tonight
Let me tell you what I'm going to do
If you hit me tonight
Let me tell you what I′m going to do
I'm gonna take you to court and tell the judge on you


I ain't made no money and he dared me to go home
I ain′t made no money and he dared me to go home
Judge, I told him he better leave me alone
He followed me up and he grabbed me for a fight
He followed me up and he grabbed me for a fight
He said, "Girl, do you know you ain′t made no money tonight"

Oh Judge, tell him I'm through
Oh Judge, tell him I′m through
I'm tired of this life
That′s why I brought him to you
