Black Dog Blues Lyrics by Blind Blake

Blind Blake: Complete Recorded Works In Chronological Order Volume 1 (July 1926 to October 1927)

0

[Intro: Humming]
[Verse 1]
Let me tell you, mama, what my black dog done done to me
Let me tell you, mama, what my black dog done done to me
He chased me from my regular, now he's after my used-to-be
[Verse 2]
Black dog, black dog, you caused me to weep and moan
Black dog, black dog, you caused me to weep and moan
You caused me to leave my sweet old happy home
[Verse 3]
Black dog, black dog, you forever on my mind
Black dog, black dog, you forever on my mind
Said you'll only let me see my baby one more time
[Verse 4]
So long, black dog, I'm quittin' your hard-luck town
So long, black dog, I'm quittin' your hard-luck town
'Cause you got the best dog, sweet papa's gonna jump down
