Down The Dirt Road Blues
Charley Patton
[C]I'm goin aw[F]ay, to a [D#]world un[C]known
[C]I'm goin aw[F]ay, to a [D#]world un[C]known
[G]Im [G7]worried now, but I won't be worried [C]long
My rider got somethin, shes tryin a keep it hid
My rider got somethin, shes tryin a keep it hid
Lord, I got somethin to find that somethin with
I feel like choppin, chips flyin everywhere
I feel like choppin, chips flyin everywhere
I been to the Nation, oh Lord, but I couldnt stay there
Some people say them oversea blues aint bad
(Why, of course they are)
Some people say them oversea blues aint bad
(What was a-matter with em?!)
It must not a-been them oversea blues I had
Every day seem like murder here
(My God, I'm no sheriff)
Every day seem like murder here
Im gonna leave tomorrow, I know you dont bid my care
Cant go down any dirt road by myself
Cant go down any dirt road by myself
(My Lord, who ya gonna carry?)
I dont carry my (rider), gonna carry me someone else
Nation:Indian Nation (Oklahoma)
