Blind Willie McTell - Broke Down Engine Blues

Loving Talking Blues

Don't get mad with me, mama, cuz I talk in my sleep.
Something may break your heart, baby, and it may cause you to weep

I'm going downtown, buy me a brand new rocking chair
And if the blues overtake me I'm gonna rock away from here

I love you, mama, you know that I'm talking to you
Ah you know, babe, that I've got them love talking blues

Don't want no sleeper, don't want no pullman car
I'm gon find little Mary if I have to ride the boxcar rods

Mmm Mary she grievin' and cryin'
I told her she had a home as long as I got mine

Mmm Lordy Lordy Lord
Told her she had a home as long as I got mine
