Booze and Blues - Ma Rainey/Kid Wesley Wilson

Went to bed last night

And boy I was in my sleep sleep

I went to bed last night

And I was in my sleep

Woke up this mornin'

The police was shakin' me

I went to the jailhouse

Drunk and blues as I could be

I went to the jailhouse

Drunk and blues as I could be

But that cruel old judge sent my man away from me

They carried me to the courthouse

Lordy how I was cryin'

They carried me to the courthouse

Lordy how I was cryin'

They jailed me sixty days in jail

And money couldn't pay my fine

Sixty days ain't long

If you can spend them as you choose

Sixty days ain't long

If you can spend them as you choose

But this seems like jail than a cell

Where there ain't no booze

My life is all a misery

When I cannot get my booze

My life is all a misery

When I cannot get my booze

I spend every dime on liquor

Got to have the booze

To go with these blues
