1
Down in Atlanta G A,
2
Under the viaduct every day,
3
Drinkin' corn and howlin' "Hurray!",
4
Piano's playin' till the break of day;
5
But as I turned my head,
6
I loudly said;
7
Preach therm blues,
8
Sing them blues,
9
They certainly sound good to me!
10
I've been in love for the past six months
11
And I ain't done worryin' yet!
12
Moan them blues,
13
Holler them blues,
14
Let me convert your soul!
15
'Cause just a little spirit of the blues tonight;
16
Let me tell you girls that your man ain't treating you right!
17
Let me tell you, I don't mean no wrong,
18
I will learn you somethin' if you listen to this song!
19
I ain't here to try to save your soul,
20
Just want to teach you how to save your good jelly roll!
21
Goin' on down the line a little further now,
22
There's a-many a poor woman down;
23
Read on down to chapter nine,
24
Women must learn how to take their time!
25
Read on down to chapter ten,
26
Takin' other women's men, you are doin' a sin!
27
Sing 'em, sing 'em, sing them blues,
28
Let me convert your soul!
29
Now one sister by the name of Sister Green
30
Jumped up and done a shimmy you ain't never seen!
31
Sing 'em, sing 'em, sing them blues,
32
Let me convert your soul!
