Bessemer Bound Blues Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I woke up this mornin', lookin' for my down-home shoes
I woke up this mornin', lookin' for my down-home shoes
'Cause mama's goin' home, singin' those Bessemer blues
[Verse 2]
Papa, sugar, papa, how come you do me like you do?
Papa, sugar, papa, how come you do me like you do?
I did everything you asked me, tryin' to get along with you
[Verse 3]
I wade in the water, walked through the ice and snow
I wade in the water, walked through the ice and snow
But from now on, papa, I won't be your dog no more
[Verse 4]
State Street's alright, and the lights shine nice and bright
State Street's alright, and the lights shine nice and bright
But I'd rather be in Bessemer, readin' by a candlelight
