letra de statesboro blues - ralph mctell

wake up mama, and turn your lamp down low
wake up mama, and turn your lamp down low
you’ve got the nerve to tell me got another man at your back door

once had a woman, the prettiest thing i have ever seen
once had a woman, the prettiest thing i have ever seen
she treated me like a king and she was a doggone queen

my daddy left me reckless, my mama left me wild
oh, my mama left me reckless, my daddy left me wild, wild, wild
i know i ain’t good lookin’ but i’m some sweet woman’s angel child

well, my brother’s got ’em, my sister’s got ’em
my uncle’s got ’em, lord, everybody’s got ’em
when i woke up this morning, i had them statesboro blues
i looked over in the corner, and grandma ‘n grandpa had ’em too

now, i’m goin’ up the county, mama, don’t you wanna go?
i’m goin’ up the county, mama, don’t you wanna go?
it may take a thousand and it may take one or two more

now, big eighty left savannah, lord, she did not stop
tell that colored fireman when his boiler got red hot
will you reach in the corner, mama, and hand me my travelin’ shoes
when i woke up this morning, lord, i had them statesboro blues
because my brother’s got ’em, my sister’s got ’em
my uncle’s got ’em, lord, everybody’s got ’em
when i woke up this morning, i had them statesboro blues
looked over in the corner, grandma ‘n grandpa had ’em too
