Every Day In The Week Blues - Pink Anderson
I woke up this morning
What you reckon was on my mind
My brown told me to leave but
I told her I just wasn't wine
Woke up singing this morning
When the clock was striking four
All I heard my baby crying
Daddy please don't go
Show me the train
You call the Cannonball
That's the train don't stop a'tall
My momma told me
When I was but a child
That there's good times now
But terrible after a while
If you ride the Seaboard
I ride the L and N
Momma that's the training
Sure carry me in the wind
My momma told me
When I was four years old
You gonna be around a woman
God bless your soul
Lord a mean old fireman
A cruel old engineer
Took my good girl and
Left me standing here
I'm going buy me a manger
I wanna carry it to the sky
So I can see my baby
When she comes passing by
Well I took this brown skinned woman
From my best friend
And that rascal got lucky and
Stole her back again
I woke up this morning
All with the rising sun
Said go away day and
Let tomorrow come
Singing my blues
And I singing when I please
I sing these blues to
Give my poor heart
Sometime I feel like
I done throw it away
Take this old guitar
And whoop these blues all day
You must get your basket brownie
And make it into them woods
If you don't find
An old apple you
Must make black berries good
