Salt Lake City Blues
Papa Charlie Jackson
GENRE
[Verse 1]
Sweet woman left me, Lord, and I don't know why
My sweet woman left, Lord, and I don't know why
So I better start [?] 'cause it's no use, babe, to cry
[Verse 2]
Lord, a woman is one thing you can't understand
Lord, a woman is one thing you can't understand
When you think she's lovin' you, she's quittin' you for some other man
[Verse 3]
Going back to Salt Lake City, ain't no place for me
Going back to Salt Lake City, ain't no place for me
Going back to Salt Lake City where the women won't let me be
[Verse 4]
You have a wife in the morning, Lord, a wife at night
You have a wife in the morning, Lord, a wife at night
And always a substitute to take her placе when she's out of sight
[Verse 5]
When a man's out gamblin', hе must expect to lose
When a man's out gamblin', he must expect to lose
That's the reason why I got the Salt Lake City blues
[Verse 6]
I'm leaving here tonight if I have to ride the blinds
I'm leaving here tonight if I have to ride the blinds
Take a freight train special, tell the engineer "Lose no time"
[Verse 7]
Now the jinx all on me, all on this town
Now the jinx all on me, all over this town
That's the reason why I'm Salt Lake City bound
Sweet woman left me, Lord, and I don't know why
My sweet woman left, Lord, and I don't know why
So I better start [?] 'cause it's no use, babe, to cry
[Verse 2]
Lord, a woman is one thing you can't understand
Lord, a woman is one thing you can't understand
When you think she's lovin' you, she's quittin' you for some other man
[Verse 3]
Going back to Salt Lake City, ain't no place for me
Going back to Salt Lake City, ain't no place for me
Going back to Salt Lake City where the women won't let me be
[Verse 4]
You have a wife in the morning, Lord, a wife at night
You have a wife in the morning, Lord, a wife at night
And always a substitute to take her placе when she's out of sight
[Verse 5]
When a man's out gamblin', hе must expect to lose
When a man's out gamblin', he must expect to lose
That's the reason why I got the Salt Lake City blues
[Verse 6]
I'm leaving here tonight if I have to ride the blinds
I'm leaving here tonight if I have to ride the blinds
Take a freight train special, tell the engineer "Lose no time"
[Verse 7]
Now the jinx all on me, all on this town
Now the jinx all on me, all over this town
That's the reason why I'm Salt Lake City bound
