Last Time Blues (Sept.22,1929 At Peabody Hotel, Memphis) Songtext
von “Papa” Charlie McCoy

Baby, just as sure as a blackbird flies to the skies above
Baby, just as sure as a blackbird flies to the skies above
Says your own life ain′t worth living,
baby, if you ain't with the one you love

My baby tried to do me like the tadpole do the trout
My baby tried to do me like the tadpole do the trout
That′s get me out in the deep water, baby, then she walks on out


Mmm, good Lordy, send me an angel down
Mmm, good Lordy, send me a angel down
Said "Now I can't spare you no
angel, but I'm send you a teasin′ brown"

I don′t think no woman in this whole round world do right
Don't think no woman in this whole round world do right
If they be good all day, they will do wrong at night

Baby and it may be my last time, rider, you sure don′t know
May be my last time, rider, you sure don't know
It may be my last time, baby, knocking on your door
