I've Got the Blues and I Can't Be Satisfied Songtext
von Mississippi John Hurt

I′ve got the blues and I can't be satisfied
Got the blues
Well, some ol′ day gonna catch that train and ride

Yes, whiskey straight will drive the blues away
Whiskey straight will drive the blues away
That be the case, I wants a quart today


I bought my baby a great big diamond ring
Bought my baby
Come right back home and caught her shakin' that thing
I said, "Baby, what make you do me this a-way?"
"Baby, what make you?"
"Well that I bought and now you give it away"

I took my gun and I broke the barrel down
Took my gun
I put that joker six feet under the ground
You got the blues and I still ain't satisfied
You got the blue
Well, some ol′ day gonna catch that train and ride
