"Blues in My Bottle" by Lightnin' Hopkins
.........................................
blues in a bottle, blues in a bottle
just stopped in my hand, lord, lordy
blues in a bottle, stopped in my hand
u know i was looking for my woman
she's out with another man
blues in a bottle, blues in a bottle got me
blue as i can be, doggone
blues in a bottle
blue as i can be
my baby left me
my heart's in misery
...
blues came to Texas, blues came to Texas
failed here by land
doggone, my bad luck
so lordy
blues came to Texas
failed here by land
u know i got the blues in a bottle
but i got to stop it in my hand
alright
...
blues in a bottle, blues in a bottle
misery as i can be
doggone, my bad luck
so blues in a bottle
blue as i can be
u know i ain't got nobody now
my heart's in misery
...
picked all my cotton, picked all my cotton
pulled all my corn
doggone, my bad luck
so picked all my cotton, picked all my cotton
pulled all my corn
i aint got no more crop together
guess i believe better leave this old farm
