Cherry Ball Blues

Cherry Ball Blues - Skip James

I love my little cherry ball

Better than I love myself

I love my cherry ball

Better than I love myself

Then if she don't love me

She can't love nobody else

Cherry ball she quit me

Quit me in a nice good way

Cherry ball she quit me

Quit me in a nice good way

You know what it take to get her back

I carries it ev'ryday

Now I left cherry ball standin'

Standin' in the back do' cryin'

Now I left cherry ball

Standin' in the back do' cryin'

Of course I feel her condition

But her trouble ain't none a-mine

She's just like a spider

She's hangin' on the wall

She's like a spider

She's hangin' on the wall

You know she done quit me

She quit me without a cause

Now when she left me

She left tears in my eye

Now when she left me

She left tears in my eye

You know that I love her

But her disposition I do dispise
