When You Got A Good Friend
When you got a good friend
That will stay right by your side,
When you got a good friend
That will stay right by your side,
Give her all your spare time,
Love and treat her right.

I mistreated my baby
And I can't see no reason why.
I mistreated my baby
And I can't see no reason why.
Any time I think about it
I just wring my hands and cry.

Wonder could I ever apologize
Or would she sympathize with me?
Would she sympathize with me?
She's a brown-skin woman,
Just as sweet as a girlfriend can be.

Babe, I may be right or wrong.
Babe, it's your opinion,
Well, I may be right or wrong.
Watch your close friend, baby,
Then your enemies can't do you no harm.

When you got a good friend
That will stay right by your side,
When you got a good friend
That will stay right by your side,
Give her all your spare time,
Love and treat her right.


Little Queen Of Spades
She is a little queen of spades
And the men will not let her be.
Said she is a little queen of spades
And the men will not let her be.
Everytime she make a spread,
Oh fair brown, cold chills run all over me.

Gonna get me a gambling woman
If it's the last thing that I do.
Gonna get me a gambling woman
If it's the last thing that I do.
A man don't need a woman,
Oh fair brown, that he got to give all of his money to.

Everybody said you got a mojo,
'Cause baby, you've been using that stuff.
Everybody said you got a mojo
Baby, you've been using that stuff.
Got a way trimming down,
Oh fair brown, and I mean it's most too tough.

Little girl, since I am the king,
Baby, and you is the queen,
Little girl, since I am the king,
Baby, and you is the queen,
Let us put our heads together,
Oh fair brown, and we can make our money green.

Me And The Devil Blues
Early this morning,
You knocked upon my door,
Early this morning,
You knocked upon my door,
And I said, "Hello, Satan,
I believe it's time to go."

Me and the devil
Were walking side by side.
Me and the devil
Were walking side by side.
I'm gonna beat my woman
Until I get satisfied.

She said she don't see why,
That I will dog her 'round.
(Now baby, you know you ain't doing me right.)
She said she don't see why, That I will dog her 'round.
Well, it must be that old evil spirit
So deep down in the ground.

You may bury my body
Down by the highway side.
(I don't care where you bury my body when I'm dead and gone.)
You may bury my body
Down by the highway side.
Oh, my old evil spirit
Can take a Greyhound bus and ride.

But my Friar's Point rider, now,
Hops all over me.

I ain't gonna state no color but
Her front teeth is crowned with gold.
I ain't gonna state no color but
Her front teeth is crowned with gold.
She got a mortgage on my body, Lord,
A lien on my soul.

Well, I'm going down to Rosedale,
Rider by my side.

Rider by my side.
Well, we can still barrelhouse, babe,
On the riverside.

You can squeeze my lemon till
Juice run down my leg.

Juice run down my leg.

But I'll be going back to Friar's Point, mama,
Rocking to my head.


Last Fair Deal Gone Down
It's the last fair deal goin' down,

It's the last fair deal goin' down, good Lord,
on that Gulfport Island Road1

Please, Ida Belle, don't cry this time

If you cry about a nickel, you'll die 'bout a dime
She wouldn't cry, but the money won't2 mine

I love the way you do,

on this Gulfport Island Road1

Stop Breakin' Down Blues
Every time I'm walking down the street,
Some pretty mama start breakin' down with me.

Stop breakin' down,
Please, stop breakin' down.
The stuff I got will bust your brains out, baby.
Oh, it'll make you lose your mind.

I can't walk the streets now to consolate my mind.
Some pretty mama starts breakin' down.

Stop breakin' down,
Please, stop breakin' down.
The stuff I got will bust your brains out, baby.
Oh, it'll make you lose your mind.

Now, you Saturday night women, you love to ape and clown.
Won't do nothing but tear a good man reputation down.

Stop breakin' down,
Please, stop breakin' down.
The stuff I got will bust your brains out, baby.
Oh, it'll make you lose your mind.

Well, I give my baby the ninety-nine degrees.
She jumped up and throwed a pistol down on me.

Stop breakin' down,
Please, stop breakin' down.
The stuff I got will bust your brains out, baby.
Oh, it'll make you lose your mind.

Well now, I can't start walking down the streets,
Some pretty woman start breakin' down with me.

Milkcow's Calf Blues
Tell me, milk cow,
What on Earth is wrong with you?
Oh, milk cow,
What on Earth is wrong with you?
Now, you've left you a calf
And your milk is turning blue.

Lord, your calf is hungry
And I believe he needs a suck.
Lord, your calf is hungry,
I believe he needs a suck.
Well, your milk is turning blue.
I believe he's out of luck.

Now, I feel like milking and my cow won't come.
I feel like churning and my milk won't turn.

Please, don't do me wrong.
If you see my milk cow, baby now,
Please drive her home.

Lord, my milk cow been rambling
For miles around.

Well, how can you suck on some other man's bull cow
In this strange man's town?


Kind Hearted Woman Blues
I got a kind-hearted woman,
Do anything in this world for me.

Do anything in this world for me.
These evil-hearted women,
Man, they will not let me be.

I love my baby,
My baby don't love me.
I love my baby,
My baby don't love me.
Really love that woman,
Can't stand to leave her be.

Ain't but one thing makes Mr. Johnson drink.
Swear 'bout how you treat me, babe, I begin to think.
Oh babe, my life don't feel the same.
You break my heart when you call Mr. So-and-So's name.

I got a kind-hearted woman,
Studies evil all the time.

Studies evil all the time.
You wish to kill me,
Just to have it on your mind.


Come On In My Kitchen
You better come on
In my kitchen,
It's going to be rainin' outdoors.

The woman I love stole my best friend.
Some joker got lucky, stole her back again.

You better come on
In my kitchen,
It's going to be rainin' outdoors.

Uh huh, she gone, know she won't come back.
I take the last nickel out of her nation sack.

You better come on
In my kitchen,
It's going to be rainin' outdoors.

You better come on
In my kitchen,
It's going to be rainin' outdoors.

When a woman get in trouble, everybody throws her down.
Looking for her good friend, they can't be found.

You better come on
In my kitchen,
It's going to be rainin' outdoors.

Any time you've coming, it's gonna be so.
You can't make the winter, baby, just drive on slow.

You better come on
In my kitchen,
It's going to be rainin' outdoors.

You better come on
In my kitchen,
It's going to be rainin' outdoors.


If I Had Possession Over Judgement Day
If I had possession over judgment day,
If I had possession over judgment day,
Lord, the women I'm lovin' would have no right to pray.

And I went to the mountain, far as my eye could see.
Lord, I went to the mountain, far as my eye could see.
Some other man got my woman and the lonesome blues got me.

And I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long.
Lord, I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long.
And I woke up this morning, my biscuit rollin' on.

Had to fold my arms and slowly walked away.
(I didn't like the way she done.)
Lord, I fold my arms and I slowly walked away.
Well, I said in my mind, "Your trouble gonna come some day."

Well, now run here baby, get down on bended knee.
Lord, now run here baby, get down on bended knee.
I wanna tell you all about the way they treated me.


Love In Vain
Well, I followed her to the station
With a suitcase in my hand.
Lord, I followed her to the station
With a suitcase in my hand.
Well, it's hard to tell, it's hard to tell,
When all your love's in vain.
All my love is in vain.

When the train pulled up to the station,
I looked her in the eye.
When the train pulled up to the station,
I looked her in the eye.
I was lonesome, I felt so lonesome,
And I could not help but cry.
All my love is in vain.

Well, the train it left the station
With two lights on behind.
Well, the train it left the station
With two lights on behind.
Well, the blue light was my blues,
The red light was my mind.
All my love is in vain.

Oh oh,
Oh, Willie Mae.
Oh oh oh oh oh,
Oh, Willie Mae.
Oh oh oh oh oh,
Oh vee oh woe.
All my love is in vain.


32-20 Blues
If I send for my baby, man, and she don't come,
Send for my baby, man, and she don't come,
All the doctors in Hot Springs sure can't help her none.

If she gets unruly, thinks she don't wanna do,
She gets unruly, thinks she don't wanna do,
Take my 32-20, boy, cut her half in two.

She got a .38 special but I believe it's most too light.
