skip james – special rider blues lyrics
i ain’t got no, special rider here
i ain’t got no, no special rider here
i ain’t got n-body
to love and feel my care
(guitar)
i woke up this mo’nin
looked at spec-special risin’ sun
i woke up this mo’nin
i looked at special risin’ sun
now, i pray up to the good lord
that my special rider, she would come
(guitar)
i got up off-a my pallet
i laid down ‘cross my bed
i got up off my pallet
an i laid down across my bed
when i went to eat my break’qast
an the blues was all in my bread
(guitar)
you know, i got a letter
how do you reck’in it read?
i got a letter
an how do you reck’in it read?
you better hur’ up an come home
because yo’ special rider, she’s dead
that’s the reason i ain’t
got no special rider
rider, here
that’s the reason i ain’t
got no special rider, here
now, i ain’t got n-body
to love and feel my care.
(guitar to end)
