When My First Wife Left Me Lyrics


When my first wife left me, she left my heart in misery
When my first wife left me, she left my heart in misery
Ever since that day, boy, I don't think I'll ever love againIf I can get her back again, I'll never roam no more
If I get her back again, boys, I'll never roam no more
I had a good wife, but I did not treat her rightIt's my fault; only have myself to blame
It's my fault, it's my fault, boys; I only have myself to blame
She would have been home right now if I hadn't wanted every woman that I seenI found out one thing: these women don't mean you no good
I found out one thing, people: these women don't mean you no good
You mistreated a good girl for some woman that she'd turn around and turn her back on you
Yes, yeahI'm having bad luck, having bad luck ever since she been gone
I'm having bad luck, bad luck, bad luck, ever since my baby been gone
When she was at home, Lord, I did not treat her right

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

John Lee Hooker (Coahoma County, Mississippi, August 22, 1917 – Los Altos, California, June 21, 2001) was a highly influential American blues singer, guitarist and songwriter. John Lee Hooker could be said to embody his own unique genre of the blues, often incorporating the boogie-woogie piano style and a driving rhythm into his masterful and idiosyncratic blues guitar and singing. His best known songs include "Boogie Chillen" (1948) and "Boom Boom" (1962).
