Beale Street Blues

Beale Street Blues (Remastered) - Bessie Smith/Copyright Control/Handy

Lord

I'd rather be here

Than any place I know

I'd rather be here

Than any place I know

It's gonna take the sergeant

For to make me go

I'm goin' down to the river

Maybe by and by

I'm goin' down to the river

And there's a reason why

Because the river's wet

And Beale Street's done gone dry
