If I had possession, over judgment day
If I had possession, over judgment day
Lord, the little woman
I'm lovin' wouldn't, have no right to pray
And I went to the mountain, lookin' as far as my eyes could see
And I went to the mountain, lookin' as far as my eyes would see
Some other man got my woman, and these lonesome blues got me
And I rolled and
I tumbled and
I, cried the whole night long
And I rolled and
I tumbled and
I, cried the whole night long
Boy, I woke up this mornin', my biscuit roller gone
Had to fold my arms and
I, slowly walked away(spoken: I didn't like the way she done)
Had to fold my arms and
I, slowly walked away
I said in my mind, "Yo' trouble gon' come some day1"
Now run here, baby, set down on my knee
Now run here, baby, set down on my knee
I wanna tell you all about the way they treated me
Note: this is another version of the
Mississippi piece often known, though mostlywith very differing lyrics, as
Rollin' And
Tumblin' (Rollin' And Tumblin', byMcKinley Morganfield a.k.a. Muddy Waters & Rolling And Tumbling, by ElmoreJames), in many versions it's also known as
Brownville
Blues;Note 1: alternatively "I felt in my mind, your trouble gon' come some day"instead of "I said in my mind, "
Yo, trouble gon' come some day" ".
