From Four ’Til Late Songtext
von Robert Johnson

From four until late
I was wringing my hands and crying
From four until late
I was wringing my hands and crying
I believe to my soul
That your daddy′s Gulfport bound
From Memphis to Norfolk
Is a thirty-six hour ride
From Memphis to Norfolk
Is a thirty-six hour ride
A man is like a prisoner
And he's never satisfied
A woman is like a dresser
Some man′s always ramblin' through its drawers
A woman is like a dresser Some man's always ramblin′ through its drawers
It cause so many men wear an apron overhaul
From four until late
She get with a no good bunch and clown
From four until late
She get with a no good bunch and clown
Now she won′t do nothin'
But tear a good man′s reputation down
When I leave this town
I'm ′onna bid you fare farewell
It's when I leave this town
I′m 'onna bid you fare farewell
And when I return again
You'll have a great long story to tell
