Bessie Smith (Remastered) Lyrics

[00:17.190]	Bessie was more than just a friend of mine
[00:24.450]	We shared the good times with the bad
[00:31.520]	Now many a year has passed me by
[00:40.380]	I still recall the best thing I ever had
[00:45.720]	I'm just goin' down the road t' see bessie
[00:53.640]	Oh, see her soon
[00:59.960]	Goin' down the road t' see bessie smith
[01:07.540]	When I get there I wonder what she'll do
[01:16.440]	Now all the crazy things I had to try
[01:24.390]	Well I tried them all and then some
[01:30.790]	But if you're lucky one day you'll find out
[01:39.150]	Where it is you're really comin' from
[01:48.080]	I’m just goin' down the road t' see bessie
[01:52.460]	Oh, see her soon
[02:00.460]	Goin' down the road t' see bessie smith
[02:07.770]	When I get there I wonder what she’'l do
[03:14.600]	Now in my day I've made some foolish moves
[03:19.750]	But back then, I didn't worry 'bout a thing
[03:27.050]	And now again I still wonder to myself
[03:35.260]	Was it her sweet love or the way that she could sing
[03:40.550]	I’m just goin' down the road t' see bessie
[03:48.320]	Oh, see her soon
[03:54.380]	Goin' down the road t' see bessie smith
[04:00.910]	When I get there I wonder what she'll do
