Poor John Blues

Now rather be dead Sleepin' in a hollow log Now ruther be dead An sleepin' in a hollow log An to be here beggin' you Car'in me like a dog Now what you want po' John to do? Now, what you want po' John to do? Lord, I've done, done everything Tryin' to get along wit' you Now the woman I'm lovin' She got one teeth solid gold Now the woman I'm lovin' She got one teeth solid gold Lord, just stayin' on with this woman Gotta mortgage on my soul Now sho' as the grass On the Texas earth grow green Now sho' as the grass On the Texas earth grow green Lord, I ain't crazy about Nobody I ever seen.
