cave nick - blind lemon jefferson lyrics
bline lemon jefferson is a-coming.
tap tap tappin with his cane.
bline lemon jefferson is a-coming.
tap tap tappin with his cane.
his last ditch lies down the road of trials
half filled with rain.
o sycamore, sycamore!
stretch your arms across the storm.
down fly two greasy brother-crows
they hop’n’bop hop’n’bop hop’n’bop
like the tax-man come to call.
they go knock knock! knock knock!
hop’n’bop hop’n’bop
they slap a death-writ on his door.
here come the judgement train
git on board!
and turn that big black engine home.
o let’s roll!
let’s roll!
down the tunnel.
the terrible tunnel of his world.
waiting at his final station
like a bigger blacker third bird.
o let’s roll!
let’s roll!
o his road is dark and lonely.
he don’t drive no cadillac.
o his road is dark and holy.
he don’t drive no cadillac.
if that sky serves as his eyes
then that moons a cataract.
let’s roll!
yeah let’s roll!
(ad lib)
