Black Horse Blues - Blind Lemon Jefferson
Chicago c. April 1926, Pm 12367
C position and pitch

Tell me what time do the trains come through your town
I wanna know what time do the trains come through your town
I wanna laugh and talk with a long-haired teasin' brown

One goes south at eight and it's one goes north at nine
One goes south at eight and one goes north at nine
I got a hour to talk with that long-haired brown of mine

instrumental verse

solo

Go and get my black horse and saddle up my grey mare
Go get my black horse and saddle up my grey mare
I'm goin' off to my good gal, she's in the world somewhere

instrumental verse

I can't count the times that I stole aside and cried
I can't count the times I stole aside and cried
Tell you the blues ain't on me, but things ain't goin' on right
