buddy guy & junior wells - big boat (buddy and junior's thing) lyrics

>
once i was standin’ down on the landing
when the big boat, lawd, pulled up and blowed
once i was standin’ down on the landing
when the big boat, lawd, pulled up and blowed
oh, it just hurt me to my soul
i knew i wouldn’t see my little girl no more

i’m gonna write my momma
and tell her the shape that i’m in
i got to write my momma
and tell her the shape that i’m in
i been hurt this morning
i don’t wanna be hurt no more
lord, i’ll be standing down on the corner
on the corner of fifth and main
i’ll be standing down on the corner
on the corner of fifth and main
with my (heart in this hand ?)
shakin’ hands with another man

i’ll be standin’ down on the landing
whеn the big boat pulls off and blowed
i’ll be standin’ on thе landing
when the big boat pulls off and blowed
oh, it hurt me to my soul
i’ll never see my little girl no more

+(harmonica solo)+

it’s a crying shame
for my mama to be so mean (i wonder why)
lord, it’s a crying shame
for my mother to be so mean
she say i told you about that no+good woman
you wouldn’t listen to a word i said

i say i’m comin’ home in the morning, mama
and her cryin’ won’t make me stay
i’m comin’ home in the morning
the girl’s cryin’ won’t make me stay
i done cried so much this mornin’
the little girl ‘bout to drive me away
(but i won’t go home, know what?)
i’ll be standin’ down on the landing
when the big boat pulls off and blowed
i’ll be standin’ on the landing
when the big boat pulls off and blowed
oh, it done hurt me to my soul
i’ll never see this little girl no more
(turn the boat around)

i’m gonna leave +
oh lord, i been hurtin’ too long
i’m gonna leave +
oh lord, i been hurt too long
i’ve been hurt once baby
and i won’t be hurt no more

i’ve been hurt once baby and won’t
i won’t be hurt no more
i’ve been hurt once baby and i
i won’t be hurt no more
i’ve been hurt once baby and i
i won’t be hurtin’ no more
