Corpus Blues
 

I remember one time people : oh it is in nineteen and twenty‑four
Something happened that year : that I never want to see no more

I remember one time : oh it is in nineteen twenty‑one
They say I got to watch my sweet woman : she's running from sun to sun

I thought : that my woman oh was treating me right
But oh when I went down to call for her : she didn't do nothing but fuss and fight

I never earned nothing : oh so much to hurt me so
Oh when I was talking to my babe that morning : and she told me that I didn't

Mmm : baby what's on your mind
Oh you want to be mean to me woman : give me a good word all the time
