Statesboro Blues - Live At The Fillmore East/1971

Okay, y'all remember this dance

Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
You got no nerve, baby, to turn Uncle John from your door

I woke up this morning, I had them Statesboro Blues
I woke up this morning, had them Statesboro Blues
Well, I looked over in the corner, baby, and grandma seemed to have them too

Well, my momma died and left me
My poppa died and left me
I ain't good-looking baby
But I'm someone sweet and kind

I'm goin' to the country, baby, do you wanna go?
But if you can't make it, baby, your sister Lucille said she wanna go
Well, I sure will take her

I love that woman, better than any woman I've ever seen
Well, I love that woman, better than any woman I've ever seen
Well, how she treat me like a king, yeah, yeah, yeah
I treat her like a doggone queen

Lord, wake my momma, turn your lamp down low
Wake up momma, but turn your lamp down low
You got no nerve, baby, to turn my momma down from your door
