Bessemer Bound Blues Lyrics & Tabs by Ma Rainey

Bessemer Bound Blues

guitar chords lyrics

Ma Rainey

Woke up this morning: looking for my darn old shoes
Because mama's going home: singing the Bessemer blues
Apple sugar papa: how come you do me like you do

I've done everything you asked me: trying to get along with you
I went in the water: walked through ice and snow
But from now on papa: I won't be your dog no more
Electric all right and light shine nice and bright
But I'd rather be in Memphis: reading by a candle light
