Sonny Boy's Christmas Blues

Sonny Boy's Christmas Blues - Sonny Boy Williamson II/His Harmonica/Houserockers

Got some mighty sad news and i ain't got nothin' to say

I heard some mighty sad news and i don't have nothin' to say

My baby left me started me drinkin' on Christmas day

Lord i tried to fetch religion but the devil would not let me pray

Lord i tried to fetch religion but the devil will not let me pray

That's why i gotta stay drunk boys all day that Christmas day

Ooh on a Christmas day

You know that's one day i hate to have the blues

You know when she walked out and left me she give 'em to me

So i have to drink 'em all

I don't even have a Christmas tree in my house unless she comes home

But if she do happen to come home i will enjoy this Christmas

Yes run here baby and let me tell you what i got to say

Please please run here darlin' and let daddy tell you what he got to say

Unless'n you come back to me

I'll be drunk all day Christmas day
