1
This is a song was sung back in 18 and 92
2
There was a terrible flood that year
3
People lost everything they had
4
Their crops, their live stock
5
That means their horses, their mules, cows
6
Goats and everything they had on their farm
7
And they would start cryin' and singin' this song
8
They tell me, Joe Turner been here and gone
9
Lord, they tell me, Joe Turner been here and gone
10
They tell me, Joe turner been here and gone
11
Then they would go out hunting rabbits, 'coons and 'possoms
12
Anything they could catch
13
Sometimes they would catch something, then again they didn't
14
And when they would come home, they would find
15
Flour meat and molasses
16
In their homes and they would know that
17
Joe Turner had been there and left food for them
18
And they would start cryin' and singin' this song
19
They tell me, Joe Turner been here and gone
20
Lord, they tell me, that Joe turner been here and gone
21
They tell me, Joe Turner been here and gone
22
Then they would start out lookin' for wood
23
And stuff to make a fire
24
And they would look in their yards, and they would find axes, wood
25
That Joe Turner had brought there for them
26
Then they would get happy
27
And start singin' and cryin' this song
28
They would get happy and do a little boogie-woogie too
BIG JOE TURNER. Shake, Rattle & Roll. ...
