SOLO

Oh you caused me trouble, woman, and you caused me to kill a man
Caused me trouble, and you caused me to kill a man
Oh, now I'm in the jailhouse, got to do the best I can, best can

Oh, it's hard to be in trouble and all bound down in jail
Hard to be in trouble and all bound down in jail
All your friends done forsaken you and no one to go your bail, go your bail

SOLO

Goin' away now, baby, I'm a-goin' away for a spell
Goin' away now, woman, and I'm goin' away for a spell
But to leave my wife and babies, I'd rather be in hell

SOLO

It's all right to flirt, mama, and it's all right to roll high
It's all right to flirt and it's all right to roll high
Find you feel that you're safe, and your man is standin' by, stand by

Oh, the train that I ride is sixteen coaches long
Train I ride is sixteen coaches long
Don't stop in any station for to take any passengers on, passengers on

SOLO

These is my old blues and I'll sing them when I please
These is my old blues and I'll sing them when I please
Oh, the blues ain't nothin', baby, but a heart disease, a heart disease
