Furry Lewis Big Chief Blues


I'm going away baby : take me seven long months to ride
January February : March April May June July

I was three years old : when my poor mother died
If you mistreat me : mistreat a motherless child

I dreamt last night : the whole round world was mine
Wasn't nothing at all : but my good girl jumping down

She put carbolic in my coffee : turpentine in my tea
Strychnine in my biscuits : Lord but she didn't hurt me

Baby when I marry : going to marry an Indian squaw
Big chief Lord : be my daddy‑in‑law
