Moon Going Down Lyrics
Moon Going Down - Charley Patton
Aw that moon has gone down baby
North Star 'bout to shine
Aw the moon goin' down baby
North Star 'bout to shine
Rosetta Henry told me
"Lord I don't want you hangin' 'round"
Oh well where were you now baby
Clarksdale mill burned down
Oh well where were you now babe
Clarksdale mill burned down
Boy you know where I were
"I were way down Sunflower with my face all full a frowns"
They's a house over yonder painted all over green
They's a house over yonder painted all over green
Boy you know I know it's over there
Some of the finest young women Lord a man most ever seen
Lord I think I heard the Helena whistle
Helena whistle Helena whistle blow
Lord I think I heard the Helena whistle blow
Well I hear it blowin' now
Lord I ain't gonna stop walkin' till I get in my rider's door
