Walking Blues Lyrics


I woke up this mornin', feelin' round for my shoes
You know by that I got these old walkin' blues
Woke this mornin' feelin' round for my shoes
Well you know by that, I got these old walkin' bluesI feel like blowin' my old lonesome horn
I got up this mornin', all I had was gone
Well I feel like blowin' my lonesome horn
You know I got up this mornin', all I, all I had was goneWell, leave this mornin' if I have to, ride the blinds
I feel mistreated, and I don't mind dyin'
Leavin' this mornin', if I have to ride the blind
Babe, I've been mistreated, baby and I don't mind dyin'Some people tell me that the worried blues ain't bad
Worst old feelin' I most ever had
Some people tell me these old worried old blues ain't bad
You know they're the worst old feelin', I most ever hadElgin movements from his head down to his toes
Breaks in on a dollar most anywhere he goes
He's got Elgin movements from his head down to his
Lord, he break in on a dollar, most anywhere he goes

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Gertrude Pridgett Rainey, better known as Ma Rainey (Columbus, Georgia, April 26, 1886 – Columbus, Georgia, December 22, 1939), was one of the earliest known professional blues singers and one of the first generation of such singers to record. She was billed as The Mother of the Blues. She did much to develop and popularize the form and was an important influence on younger blues women, such as Bessie Smith, and their careers.
