Ma Rainey - Bessemer Bound Bluesv lyrics

Woke up this morning: looking for my darn old shoes Because mama's going home: singing the Bessemer blues Apple sugar papa: how come you do me like you do I've done everything you asked me: trying to get along with you I went in the water: walked through ice and snow But from now on papa: I won't be your dog no more Electric all right and light shine nice and bright But I'd rather be in Memphis: reading by a candle light
