Now, I can hear my black name a-ringin`

All up an` down the line

Now, an` I hear my black name a-ringin`

All up an` down the line

Now, I don`t believe you love me

Woman, I believe I`m just drivin` away my time, now



Well now, I have this blues before sunrise

A-with tears standin` in my eyes, now

I have the blues before sunrise

Oooh, tears standin` in my eyes

Now that make me have such a funny feelin`

Man, a feelin` I`m do to sighin`



Now last night I was layin` down dreamin`

Oh, you know an` I was dreamin` all to myself

Now last night I was layin` down dreamin`

You know an` I was dreamin` all to myself

Now an` I was just thinkin` if my woman didn`t love me

I hope she ain`t in love with nobody else



Spoken:

`Oh, you know I`m goin` back down in the country

You know, where old John is`



(harmonica & instrumental)



`Believe I`ll go back in Alabama somewhere, you know`
