statesboro blues

wake up momma

turn your lamp down low

wake up momma

turn your lamp down low

you got no nerve darlin'

to turn uncle john from your door

woke up this morning

i had them statesboro blues

woke up this morning

i had them statesboro blues

down over in the corner

grandma seemed to have them too

well my momma died and left me

my poppa died and left me

i ain't good looking baby

but i'm somewhat sweet as child

i'm goin' to the country

baby do you wanna go?

if you can't make it darlin'

your sister lucille said she wanna go

now damn sure i will take her there

i love that woman

better than any woman i've ever seen

i said i love that woman

better than any woman i've ever seen

thought she treat me like a king

and she look like a dog gone queen

wake up momma

turn your lamp down low

wake up momma

turn your lamp down low

you got no nerve darlin'

to turn uncle john from your door
