Sonny Boy Williamson - Number Five Blues lyrics

rate me

Number five, number five

Please bring my baby back to me

Number five, number five

Please bring my baby back to me

Now you's the meanest old train

Number five, that I've ever seen

Now when my baby left me

My baby wouldn't even wave her hand

When my baby left me

My baby wouldn't even wave her hand

Well now I know the reason she left me

'Cause she was wild about some other man

Now but that would be alright now

I know my baby ain't goin' to stay away

Now but that would be alright, yeah

I know my baby ain't goin' to stay away

Well now, an she's the woman who stays on my mind

People, she's the only woman I crave

(harmonica & piano)

'Play it to me boy, you know how I feel'

(harmonica & piano)

'Thinking about how my baby feel'

Lord, an I just looked on the 'allendar

Now just to see when yo' birthday was gon' be

Lord, I just looked on the 'allendar

Just to see when yo' birthday's gon' be

Now said, I believe that you musta born in March

Because you've got changin' ways on me

Now fare you well, now

Baby, yes I'm goin' away

Fare you well, now

Baby, yes I'm goin' away

Well now, I know you didn't love me

Now an I'm gon' find me some other place to stay.
