Landing Blues

Landing Blues - John Lee Hooker (約翰·李·胡克)

Well I was down at the Landing

When the big boat was passing by

Well I was down at the landing

When that big boat was passing by

Well I couldn't do a dog gone thing this morning

Lord but hang my head and cry

Well I was standing there watin'

She was my baby coming down

Well I was standing there waitin'

She was my baby coming down

Lord I couldn't see my baby

Lord I didn't know what to do

There was so many people

Standing there to welcome their baby home

There was so many people

Standing there to welcome their baby home

This poor man couldn't see his baby

God knows it her fault

Well I'm gonna call up in chicago

See if my baby comin' home

I'm gonna call up in chicago

See is my baby comin' home

God knows she told me to meet her that morning

And god knows my baby she couldn't be seen

Yes I said look here now baby

God knows that you coming home

If you ain't coming back to me now baby

You have to worry me the way you do
