Down in Spirits Blues Lyrics by Tampa Red

1931

I'm down in spirits
I'm cold in hand
The woman I'm loving left me for some other man
Lord I'm down in spirits
And I'm cold in hand
The woman I was loving she's left me for some other man
She quit me for a joker
I took to be my friend
You folks be the judge about what should be their end
She quit me for a joker I took to be my friend
So you people be the judge about what should be their end
Oh play it
Now if I find her I'm gonna beat her
Gon' kick and bite her too
Gonna take my German Lugеr
Going to shoot her thru and thru
If I find her I'm gonna beat hеr, gon' kick and bite her too
I'm goin' to take my German Luger and shoot her thru and thru
Then I'll be done with women
To hell with men
I'd rather be singing
Catch yo woman, just when I can(?)
I'm done with women and to hell with men
I'd rather be singing "catch yo woman," just when I can(?)
