Ma Rainey - See See Rider Blues lyrics

rate me

I'm so unhappy,

I feel so blue.

I always feel so sad.

I made a mistake

Right from the start.

Oh, it seems so hard to part.

Oh, but this letter

That I will write,

I hope he will remember,

When he receive' it.

Seeee see, rider.

See what you done done.

Lawd, lawd, lawd. 1

Made me love you,

Now your girl done come.

You made me love you,

Now your gal done come.

I'm go'n away, baby,

Won't be back till fall.

Lawd, lawd, lawd.

Go'n away, baby,

Won't be back till fall.

If I find me a good man,

I won't be back at all.

I'm gonna buy me a pistol,

Just as long as I am tall.

Lawd, lawd, lawd.

Gonna kill my man and,

Catch the Cannonball. 2

If he don't have me,

He won't have no gal at all.
