BIG ROAD BLUES (Tommy Johnson)

Well - I ain't goin' down - big road - by myself
Now don't you hear me cryin' 
Ain't goin' down that - big road by myself
If I can't carry you
Carry somebody else

Well - who is that yon' - coming - down the road
Now don't you hear me talkin'
Who's that yonder - coming down the road
Says and walk like Maddy
Swear she walk too slow

Well - never let - one woman - worry your mind
Now don't you hear me cryin'
Never let - one woman worry your mind
Say you think she's lovin'
Leavin' all the time

Well - tell me babe - who your - regular be
Now don't you hear me cryin'
Tell me baby - who your regular be
Say ain't got nobody
Please make room for me

Well - tell me honey - where you - stayed last night
Now don't you hear me cryin'
Tell me baby - where you stayed last night
Say your hair all down
Clothes ain't fittin' you right
