Delmore Brothers Brown's Ferry Blues Lyrics

 

Hard luck poppa cant stand his ground

He was a good poppa but hes down

Lord lord got those Brown's Ferry Blues

Hard luck poppa standing in the rain

If the world was corn he couldn't buy grain

Lord Lord got those Brown's Ferry Blues.

 

Hard luck poppa counting his toes

You can smell his feet wherever he goes

Lord Lord. got those Brown's Ferry Blues

Hard luck poppa can't do his stuff

The trouble with him he's been too rough

Lord Lord got those Brown's Ferry Blues.

 

Two old maids playing in the sand

Each one wishing that the other was a man

Lord Lord got those Brown's Ferry Blues

Two old maids done lost their style

If you want to be lucky you got to smile

Lord Lord got them Brown's Ferry Blues.

 

Early to bed and early to rise

And your girl goes out with other guys

Lord Lord got those Brown's Ferry Blues

If you don't believe me try it yourself

Well I tried it and I got left

Lord Lord got them Brown's Ferry Blues.

 

I gotta gal in Cumberland Gap

Shes gotta boy that calls me Pap

Lord Lord got them Brown's Ferry Blues

I dont smoke and I dont chew

And I dont go with the gals that do

Lord Lord got them Brown's Ferry Blues

 

I wanna go home but there aint no use

For the jailer man he wont turn me loose

Lord Lord got them Brown's Ferry Blues

Had a good time when I was free

But I let the wrong thing get the best of me

Lord Lord got them Browns Ferry Blues
