lyrics

Well, I got up this morning,
Jinx all around,
Jinx all 'round,
Jinx all 'round,
Around my door
Said I got up this morning
With the jinx all ‘round my bed
I said, I thought about you honey,
And it'd sure like to kill me dead

Blues ain’t nothing but a
Low down shaking,
Low down shaking,
Low down shaking,
Old aching chill
I said the blues, honey,
Is a low down old aching chill
Well, if you ain’t ever had ‘em, honey,
I hope you never will

Said I'd rather be outdoors,
Walking up
Walking up
Walking up
And down the road
Said I'd rather be outdoors
Walking up and down the road
Than to be sitting around this town
Just working for my board and clothes

Ain't no Heaven darling
Ain't no burnin'
Ain't no burnin'
Ain't no burnin'
Burnin' Hell
I said there ain't no Heaven darling,
There sure ain't no burnin' Hell
Where I'm going when I die,
Lord, can't nobody tell

I solemnly swear, Lord
I raise my right hand,
I'mma get me a woman
You get you another man
I solemnly swear
Lord, I raise my right hand
I'mma get me a woman
You go get you another man

Lookie here now baby,
Don’t you cry,
Don’t you cry,
Don't you cry,
Cry no more
I said lookie here darling,
You ain't gotta cry no more
When I leave town this time,
I’mma hang crepe all around your door
