Parchman Farm Blues / Preachin’ Blues (Studio Outtake - 1993) Lyrics

[Parchman Farm Blues]

[Verse 1]
Judge give me life this mornin'
Down on Parchman farm
Judge give me life this mornin'
Down on Parchman farm
I wouldn't hate it so bad
But I left my wife in mourn

[Verse 2]
Oh, goodbye wife
All you have done gone
Oh, goodbye wife
All you have done gone
But I hope some day
You will hear my lonesome song

[Verse 3]
Oh, listen you men
I don't mean no harm
Oh, listen you men
I don't mean no harm
If you wanna do good
You better stay off old Parchman farm

[Verse 4]
We got to work in the mornin'
Just at dawn of day
We got to work in the mornin'
Just at dawn of day
Just at the settin' of the sun
That's when the work is done

[Verse 5]
I'll redeem with my home
But the men don't want me around
I'll redeem with my home
But the men don't want me around
They say I'll take their women
Take them out of town

[Verse 6]
I'm down on Parchman farm
I sho' wanna go back home
I'm down on Parchman farm
But I sho' wanna go back home
But I hope some day
I will overcome

[Preachin' Blues]

[Verse 1]
I was up this mornin'
Ah, blues walkin' like a man
I was up this mornin'
Yeah, blues walkin' like a man
Worried blues, give me your right hand

[Verse 2]
And the blues fell mama's child
Tore me all upside down
Yes
You gonna do it?
Do it now

[Verse 3]
And the blues fell mama's child
Tore me all upside down
Carry on, poor Bob
Just can't seem to turn you 'round

[Verse 4]
And the blues, is a achin' old heart disease
And the blues, is a old achin' old heart disease
Killing me like consumption
Killing me like by degrees

[Chorus]
I been studyin' the rain
Oh, oh, drive
Oh, oh, drive my blues away
I been studyin' the rain
Oh, oh, drive
Oh, drive my blues away
Goin' out to the 'stil'ry
Stay out there all day
