Grand Daddy Blues
 

Now please Mr granddaddy : don't crawl up and down my wall
You running so quick and dangerous : that I won't have no woman at all

It was early this morning : I was lying out on my floor
I was keeping daily watch on my wall : so that granddaddy won't crawl in my house no more

If that granddaddy crawls : boy you sure be in my shape some old day
You won't have no true‑loving woman : for to pass your troubles away

When you get bad luck in your home : there's a few men know just how you feel
It takes a real good woman : for that *thirty‑five year old soul to heal*

I get wicked lonesome sometimes : in a dark room by myself
The reason I feel that way mama : I ain't got nobody to feel my care
