Lyrics Blues And Booze
by Ma Rainey
Went to bed last night, and boy I was in my sleep, sleep
I went to bed last night, and I was in my sleep
Woke up this mornin', the police was shakin' me
I went to the jailhouse, drunk and blues as I could be (2x)
But that cruel old judge sent my man away from me
They carried me to the courthouse, Lordy, how I was cryin' (2x)
They jailed me sixty days in jail, and money couldn't pay my fine
Sixty days ain't long if you can spend them as you choose (2x)
But this seems like jail than a cell where there ain't no booze
My life is all a misery when I cannot get my booze (2x)
I spend every dime on liquor, got to have the booze to go with these blues.

Also, I just did a lyric search for this song and not surprisingly, all of about five sites I checked, repeat the same errors for the line I just corrected directly below. Gotta have a good ear and have a good knowledge of Southern Black English. Not to mention that my family is from the South. 10 years ago

Correction: The line goes: "But they seem like years in a cell where there ain't no booze." There are probably more corrections in the first few lines as well. Thanks for the effort. Ma Rainey is amazing and someone should develop a site with photos, music and lyrics, etc. Thanks again12 years ago
