Testo Decoration Blues

(Sonny Boy Williamson I (John Lee))



Lord, I had a woman, she was nice lovin' in ev'ry way

Lord, I had a woman, she was nice lovin' in ev'ry way
Lord, but she died and left me, I have the blues on ev'ry decoration day



Lord, I hated to see her leave, because these were the last words my baby had to say

Lord, I hate to see her leave me, because these are the last words my baby had to say

She told me to bring her some flowers, on ev'ry decoration day



People you havin' a good time now, just like the flowers that comes in May

People you havin' a good time now, just like the flowers that comes in May

Now, but Sonny Boy, thinks about his baby, on ev'ry decoration day



Fare you well, baby, I ain't got no mo' to say

Fare you well, baby, I ain't got no mo' to say

Lord, but I always rememeber, I won't never forget decoration day



Play along boy!
