Blind Lemon Jefferson - Presenting Blind Lemon Jefferson

That Crawlin' Baby Blues

Heard a baby crying, what do his mama mean?
Heard a baby crying, what do his mama mean?
He's crying 'bout his sweet milk, and she won't feed him Jersey cream

Well, he crawled from the fireplace, stopped in the middle of the floor
Well, he crawled from the fireplace, stopped in the middle of the floor
Says, "Mama, ain't that your second daddy standing back there in the door?"

Well she grabbed my baby, spanked him, I tried to make her leave him alone
Well she grabbed my baby, spanked him, I tried to make her leave him alone
I tried my best to stop her and she said, "The baby ain't none of mine"

The woman rocks the cradle, I declare she rules the home
Woman rocks the cradle, I declare she rules the home
Married man rocks some other man's baby, fool thinks he's rockin' his own

Well it was late last night when I learned the crawlin' baby blues
I said it was late last night when I learned the crawlin' baby blues
My woman threw my clothes outdoors and I got the crawlin' baby blues
