Kant Sheck Dees Bluze (Blind Pig 4920)
Just sitting here, wishing my troubles would all go away
just sitting here, wishing my troubles would just vanish away
But I see the years keep on hanging around, trying to get me down
Just sitting here, wish dees blues would leave me alone
Oh, sitting here, wish dees blues will leave me alone
I kant sheck dees feeling, hey the woman I loved is gone
Tell yer peoples, ah, it's a mighty sad day
Wanna tell yer peoples, for me this is a mighty, mighty sad day
Hey, I got the blues so bad, tears running down my face
I can't see my way (spoken: I go in the corner and cry a little bit)
Can't stop dees crying
Hey ho, blues won't leave me alone
Hey ho, I need dees blues to leave me alone
It keep on hanging around, trying to get me down
You listen to my story, oh yeah, tell me what more can I do?
Hey, somebody listen to my story, what more, what more can I do?
I did everything I could to treat you good, now I kant sheck dees blues
I did everything I could, ho, but I kant sheck dees blues
I've been walking hey
I've been walking the streets all night long
I've been walking, I keep walking all night long
Kant sheck dees blues, I'm so sad being alone
Mercy, mercy
Mighty nights for this
I need to go out in the morning
I'm just sitting here
Ha, day by day, wishing dees old troubles
Bad luck and troubles would just go away
But I see it keep hanging around
Oh, they try to get me down
Let's rock it on home
Nothing but the blues, oh!
