Brown's Ferry Blues
Delmore Brothers

Hard luck poppa can't stand this ground
He was a good poppa but he's rarin' to go down
Lord Lord, got them Brown's Ferry Blues
Hard luck poppa standing in the rain
If the world was corn he couldn't buy grain
Lord Lord, got them Brown's Ferry Blues

(spoken:Play that thing boy)

Two old maids a-playin' in the sand
Each one wishing that the other was a man
Lord Lord, got them 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

(spoken:Get rough with that song, get rough with it)

Hard luck poppa counting his toes
You can smell his feet wherever he goes
Lord Lord, got them Brown's Ferry Blues
Hard luck poppa can't do his stuff
Trouble with him, he's been too rough
Lord Lord, got them Brown's Ferry Blues

(spoken:Yeah man, step it up and go)

Early to bed and early to rise
And your girl goes out with other guys
Lord Lord, got them Brown's Ferry Blues
If you don't believe me try it yourself
Well I tried it but I got left
Lord Lord, got them Brown's Ferry Blues

I got a girl in Cumberland Gap
She's got a boy that called me pap
Lord Lord, got them Brown's Ferry Blues
I don't smoke and I don't chew
And I don't go with that girl adieu
Lord Lord, got them Brown's Ferry Blues
