34 Blues

34 Blues - Charley Patton

I ain't gonna tell nobody '34 have done for me

I ain't gonna tell nobody what '34 have done for me

Took my roller I was broke as I could be

They run me from Will Dockery's Willie Brown I

Want your job

They run me from Will Dockery's Willie Brown I want

Your job

Buddy what's the matter

I went out and told papa Charley

"I don't want you hangin' round on my job no more"

Fella down in the country it almost make you cry

Fella down in the country it almost make you cry

My God children

Women and children flaggin' freight trains for rides

Carmen got a little six Buick big six Chevrolet car

Carmen got a little six Buick little six Chevrolet car

My God what solid power

And it don't do nothin' but follow behind Holloway's

Farmer's plow

And it may bring sorrow Lord it may bring tears

It may bring sorrow Lord and it may bring tears

Oh Lord oh Lord let me see your brand new year
