Dry Well Blues Lyrics
Dry Well Blues - Charley Patton
Way down in Lula hard livin' has done hit
Way down in Lula hard livin' has done hit
Lord your drought come an' caught us
An' parched up all the tree
Aw she stays over in Lula bid that ol' town goodbye
Stays in Lula bidding you the town goodbye
Fore I would come to know the day
Oh the Lula well was gone dry
Lord there're citizens around Lula
Aw was doin' very well
Ctizens around Lula aw was doin' very well
Now they're in hard luck together
'Cause rain don't pour nowhere
I ain't got no money and I sure ain't got no hope
I ain't got no money and I sure ain't got no hope
Come in furnished all the cotton and crops
Boy they tell me the country Lord it'll make you cry
Lord country Lord it'll make you cry
Most anybody Lord hasn't any water in the bayou
Lord the Lula womens Lord puttin' Lula young mens down
Lula men oh puttin' Lula men down
Lord you outta been there Lord
The womens all leavin' town
