blind lemon jefferson - match box blues (paramount version, matrix 4446) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i’m standin’ here, wonderin’, will a match box hold my clothes?
i’m standin’ here, wonderin’, will a match box hold my clothes?
i ain’t got so many matches but i got so far to go

[verse 2]
i said fair brown, who may manager be?
oh, mama, who may your manager be?
[we’ve had/the reason i ask] so many questions, can’t you make ‘rangements for me?

[verse 3]
i got a girl ‘cross town, she crochet all the time
i got a girl ‘cross town, crochets all the time
mama, if you don’t quit crochetin’, you gon’ lose your mind

[verse 4]
i can’t count the time i stole away and cried
can’t count the time i stole away and cried
sugar, the blues ain’t on me, but things ain’t goin’ on right

[verse 5]
if you want your lovеr, you better pin her to your sidе
i say you want your baby, pin her to your side
if she flags my train, papa lemon’s gon’ let her ride

[verse 6]
i ain’t seen my good gal in three long weeks today
ain’t seen my good gal in three long weeks today
said it’s been so long, seem like my heart gon’ break
[verse 7]
now excuse me, mama, from knockin’ on your door
well excuse me, mama, from knockin’ on your door
my mind don’t change, i’ll never knock here no more
