murderer's home blues - blind willie mctell lyrics

Loading...

i did all i could, baby, satisfy your mind, when i wake up every mornin’, you got me moanin’ and cryin’
tryin’ to send me to the chain gang, back to the murderer’s home
i’d’ve been in a better shape, mama, if i let that reckless woman alone

now i’ll have to give you my number, 4*11*44, i’ll be there forever, i ain’t got nowheres else to go
well, i’ve got to go to the chain gang, back to the murderer’s home
i’d’ve been in a better shape, mama, if i’d a*left that reckless woman alone

even the mean old judge, wouldn’t give me no fine, only thing gonna relieve me is old father time
i got to go to the chain gang, back to the murderer’s home
i would’ve been in a better shape, mama, if i’d a*left that reckless woman alone

when i was down in the alley, mama, drinkin’ that old mean booze and gin, say, “you gotta do your runnin’ around, i told you, ain’t never gonna do it again.”
’cause it leads me straight to the chain gang, down to the murderer’s home
i’d’ve been in a better shape, mama, if i’d a*let that reckless woman alone

goodbye, everybody, here come the jailer with the key, fare thee well to freedom, i don’t want no one to pity me
i’m goin’ to the chain gang, down to the murderer’s home
i’d’ve been in a better shape, mama, if i’d’ve left that reckless woman alone

so now bye*bye, all you women, this is the last i got to say, says i’m goin’ on and make my time, i’ll be a free man someday
but i ain’t goin’ back to the chain gang, back to the murderer’s home
but i would’ve been in a better shape, baby, if i’d a*let that reckless woman alone
