Gone Dead On You Blues - Blind Lemon Jefferson

Written by：Blind Lemon Jefferson

Mmmmmm

Mailman's letter brought misery to my head

Mmmmm

Brought misery to my head head

I got a letter this morning

My pigmeat mama was dead

I jumped this fast mail rattler

Almost went aflyin'

I jumped this fast mail rattler

And I almost went aflyin'

Hurry engineerman

For my pigmeat mama is dyin'

Go to the telephone

And I pull the receiver down

Go to the telephone

Pull the receiver down

Hello Central won't you

Please ring Doctor Brown

Mmmmmmm

Central what's the matter now

Mmmmmmm

Central what's the matter now

I rang so hard

Can't get no doctor no how

Oh doctor doctor

What shall a good man do

Oh doctor doctor

What shall a good man do

Says your girl ain't dyin'

But she's done gone dead on you
