Grievin' Me Blues
 

I went down on the corner : with my money in my hand
To kill my woman : about loving another man

You see it's grieving me : oh it's grieving me
Going to pack my grip : beat it back to Tennessee

I'm so sad and lonely : love has been refused
Can't have no loving : but I still have the blues

They call me pretty papa : swellest man in town
Women all screaming about me : but I can't give up my brown

Daddy's got the washboard : mama's got the tub
Sister's got the liquor : and brother's got the jug

My water pipe's all rusted : water's running cold
Someone's in the basement : trying to find the hole
