Preaching the Blues

I was up this mornin', blues walkin' like a man

I was up this mornin', blues walkin' like a man

Worried blues, give me your right handAh, blues fell mama's child, tore me all upside down

Blues fell mama's child, tore me all upside down

Travel on ol' Jeffrey Lee, ya know

Can't seem to turn him aroundSo preach the blues

Preach the blues nowBlues is low down shaking chill

Blues is low down shaking chill

You ain't never had them

I don't believe you willBlues is an achin' old heart disease

Blues is an achin' old heart disease

It's like consumption, baby

Killin' me by degreesSo preach the blues

Preach the blues nowI had religion, Lord, this day, very day

I had religion, Lord, this very day

But the womens and the whiskey

They would not let me prayGonna get me religion

Gonna join the Baptist church

Gonna get me religion

Gonna join the Baptist church

Gonna be a Baptist preacher

So I don't have to workAnd preach the blues

And preach the blues now

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
