Statesboro Blues

Statesboro Blues - Taj Mahal

"Yes now wake up mama

Turn your lamp down low

Wake up mama turn your lamp down low

Have you got the nerve

To drive poor papa Taj fro

M your door

Woke up this mornin' baby

I had them statesboro blues

Statesboro Georgia that is

Woke up this mornin

Had them statesboro blues

Looked over in the corner

Well my baby had 'em too

Mama died and left me reckless

Papa died and left me wild

I ain't good lookin baby

But I'm someone's sweet angel child

Going to the country

Baby do you want to go

I know if you can't make it

Your sister Lucille say she wanta go

You know I loved that woman better

Than any woman I'd ever seen

Yes I loved that woman better

Than any woman I'd ever seen

She treat me like a king

I treat her like she was a doggone Queen

Wake up mama turn your lamp down low

Wake up mama turn your lamp down low

Have you got the nerve to drive papa Taj

From your door "
