In the House Blues Lyrics
In the House Blues - Bessie Smith
Settin' in the house with everything on my mind
Settin' in the house with everything on my mind
Lookin' at the clock and can't even tell the time
Walkin' to my window
An' lookin' out of my door
Walkin' to my window
An' lookin' out of my door
Wishin' that my man would
Come home once more
Can't eat can't sleep
So weak I can't walk my floor
Can't eat can't sleep
So weak I can't walk my floor
Feel like hollerin' murder
Let the Police Squad get me once more
They woke me before day
With trouble on my mind
They woke me before day
With trouble on my mind
Wringin' my hands and screamin'
Walkin' the floor hollerin' and cryin'
Catch 'em don't let them blues in here
Catch 'em don't let them blues in here
They shakes me in my bed
Can't set down in my chair
Oh the blues has got me on the go
Oh they've got me on the go
They runs around my house
In and out of my front door
