Carbolic Acid Blues

Carbolic Acid Blues - Bobbie Cadillac/Texas Bill Day

My right hand is itchin' my

Left eye begin to burn

My right hand is ithcin' my

Left eye begin to burn

I know my man don't want me

If by the way he's done

I told her I loved her man

Grave will be her restin' place

I told her I loved her man

Grave will be her restin' place

She looked at me with burnin' eyes

Threw carbolic acid in my face

Carbolic acid has poisoned me

Doc Precious Wynn will tell you so

Carbolic acid has poisoned me

Doc Precious Wynn will tell you so

I got burned about the man I love

Now I got to let him go

Layin' in my bed

My face burned to the bone

Layin' in my bed

My face burned to the bone

If carbolic acid don't kill me

Penitentiary gonna be my home
