levee camp blues (live) - son house lyrics
i had a job on the levee
i had a good looking woman, she lived in hughes
i said, i had a job on the levee
i had a good looking woman, she lived in hughes
you know that pretty little thing
she kept me with the government fleet blues
you know on every payday
she’d be standing around the landing, crying
yes, on every payday
she’d be standing around the landing, crying
she be saying, “why don’t that big boat hurry
yes, and bring home that man of mine?”
you know some time, when on the river
she could hear thе big boat when she blow
yes, whеn on the river
she could hear the big boat when she blow
but when i donna get the check
she told me she couldn’t use me no more
but i said that’s all right, now, little girl
see, honey, that’s the way you do
yes, that’s all right
oh, honey, that’s the way you do
hmm, you done got on my mind
oh, baby, that’ll never do
when i said now baby, i’m goin’ away
i must stay a grand long time
yes, i’m goin’ away
i must stay a grand long time
you know i ain’t never comin’ back
until you, you change your mind
when i said, look, girl, when you get lonesome, honey
i want you to set right down and write to me
yeah,when you get lonesome
set right down and write to me
you know i can read your little writing, baby
don’t care where in this world i’ll be
you know, i thought i’d never love
but four women in my life
i thought i’d never love
oh, about four women in my life
i said, well, my mother, my sister
oh, my [?] and my wife
you know i cried last night
and i cried that ol’ night before
yeah, i cried last night
i said, i cried that ol’ night before
you know i think of changin’ my way of livin’ now
just so i won’t have to cry no more
you know love [?]
make you do things you don’t want to do
[?] love sometime
make you do things you don’t want to do
yes, but love sometime
will leave you feeling sad and blue
i said don’t come here, girl
throwing u’ your doggone hand
don’t come here, girl
i said, throwing up your doggone hand
you know i been your dog, honey
yes, ever since that i been your man
