Jimmie Rodgers - The Blues, Vol. 2

Ninety Nine Years Blues

Lawd these ninety nine blues ain't no fancy dream
If you had two lives to live you'd know just what I mean
When the judge read the verdict it nearly knocked me down
Said boy you got two six's they're all upside down

It ain't the days I've been here it's the days I got to stay
All the old friends I ever had done shook hands and gone away
My good gal told me the day I hit this can
You've made your bed in sorrow now sleep on it like a man

Ninety nine and ninety nine make one hundred and ninety eight
That's four years pretty normal than you can figure up on your slate
I don't know what else is in the world to lose
'Cause I've lost everything except these ninety nine blues
