Decoration Day Blues - Original

Decoration Day Blues - Original - John Lee Hooker (約翰·李·胡克)

Peoples I had a woman

She was nice and kind to me in every way

Peoples I had a woman

She was nice and kind to me in everyway

Lord she died; she left me

I sing the blues on every Decoration Day

Lord I was standin' around my baby's bedside

When my Lord taken my baby away

Lord I was standin' around my baby's beside

When my Lord taken my baby away

Well well when it hurt so doggone bad

Lord I hung my head an cried

"Yes so sorry "

She said "Daddy please don't worry "

"Cause everybody's got to go "

"Daddy please don't worry "

"'Cause everybody's got to go "

Well well well well

Lord the best woman

God knows I ever had

All this hurtin'

I just hung my head an cried

Yes it was a sad day with me

So sad that day

So sad that day

When my Lord taken my baby away

Well well well I'll meet my baby

On some old lonesome day
