Taj Mahal
Statesboro Blues
[Verse 1]
Yes now, wake up, mama, turn your lamp down low
Wake up, mama, turn your lamp down low
Have you got the nerve drive Papa Taj from your door?
[Verse 2]
Woke up in the morning, baby, I had them Statesboro Blues
Statesboro, Georgia that is
Woke up this morning had them Statesboro Blues
I looked over in the corner, grandma baby had 'em too
[Verse 3]
Mama died and left me reckless, papa died and left me wild
I ain't good lookin' baby but I'm someone's sweet angel-child
Goin' to the country, baby do you want to go
I know if you can't make it, your sister Lucille said she want to go
[Verse 4]
You know I love that woman better than any woman I've ever seen
Yes I love that woman better than any woman I've ever seen
She treat me like a king
I treat her like she, she was a dog gone queen
[Verse 1]
Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
Have you got the nerve drive Papa Taj from your door?
