- Sam Collins lonesome road blues 歌詞
- Sam Collins
- I'm walking down that lonesome lane
Hung down my head and cried
I weeped and I cried under a willow the tree 'N' my fate's the deep blue sea
My mama's dead papa can't be found And my brother's on the county road
Says I done been to that long plank walk And I'm on my way back home You did cause me to weep you did cause me to moan You did cause me to leave my home
I cried last night and the night before And I swore not to cry no more
You did cause me to weep you did cause me to moan You did cause me to leave my home
I got no money and they call me no honey I have to weep and moan
In eighteen hundred in that ninety nine He got killed on that streetcar line
They took him down that smoky road Brought him back on that coolin ' board
Says I been down to that water's edge That's far as I care to go
Then run here mama's 'n' fall in your daddy's breast
These blues gonna let me rest
Your fast mail train coming round the curve It done killed my little brownie dead
Her head was ground in that driver wheel And her body it have never been seen
