Vicksburg Blues Lyrics

1930 recording
I got the Vicksburg Blues and I sing 'em and ache everywhere I go
I got the Vicksburg Blues and I sing 'em and ache where I go
And the reason I sing 'em is my baby didn't want me know more

I got the Vicksburg Blues and I sing 'em and ache where I sleep
I got the Vicksburg Blues and I sing 'em and ache where I sleep
And the reason I sing 'em is to give my poor soul ease

Now mama I ain't gonna be your lowdown dog no more

And I don't like this old place, mama, and Lord and I never will
And I don't like this old place, mama, and Lord and I never will
All I can sit right here and look at Vicksburg on the hill

1976 recording
Now when I went down Mulberry, boys and I turned up clay
Now when I went down Mulberry, and boys and I turned up clay
I was looking for my baby but she had moved away

Some said she moved right on Walnut well, and some say she moved right on Pine
Some said she moved right on Walnut, and some say she moved right on Pine
Now wherever she will partner, she's restin' on my mind

Now wherever she will partner, she's restin' on my mind

Now just as soon as that train mama, well make up in the yard
Now just as soon as that train mama, honey make up in the yard
Now I'm Vicksburg board bound that's if them boys they don't have me barred
