Down On The Levee Blues Lyrics by Edna Hicks

The Paramount Project Volume 3 (12200-12299)

0

[Verse 1]
My man, he quit me
The talk's all over town
Wouldn't hate it so bad
But they say he threw me down
I guess I've had my fun
It seems as if I'm done
The path before me is mighty dark
To travel with a broken heart
But it's my own fault
I didn't travel the road I was taught
[Verse 2]
My mother told me, my brother told me too
My mother told me, my brother told me too
If you trust these men, they'll be the wreck of you
[Verse 3]
What my mother told me surely has come to pass
What my mother told me surеly has come to pass
As these hеartless men got me down at last
[Verse 4]
Out of all the men, there's none that I would choose
Out of all the men, there's none that I would choose
I'm going back to mother with these levee camp blues
