Charlie Patton - Founder of the Delta Blues

Devil Sent the Rain

Good Lord send the sunshine, Devil he send the rain
Good Lord send the sunshine, Devil he send the rain
I will be here tomorrow, on the morning train

You don't know, sure don't know my mind
You don't know me, sure don't know my mind
I don't show you my ticket, and you don't know where I'm going

Followed sweet mama, to the burying ground
Followed sweet mama, to the burying ground
I didn't know I loved her, 'til they laid her down

I been to the ocean, peeped down the deep blue sea
Been to the ocean, peeped down the deep blue sea
I didn't see nobody that looked like my sweet mama to me

One of these mornings, you know it won't be long
One of these mornings, you know it won't be long
You going to be mistreated, and have to leave your home

I'm going away, mama don't you want to go
I'm going away, mama don't you want to go
I'm going away mama, don't you wanna...
