[00:00:00] Preachin' the Blues - Bessie Smith

[00:00:01] Lyrics by：Bessie Smith

[00:00:01] Composed by：Bessie Smith

[00:00:13] Down in Atlanta

[00:00:15] GA under the viaduct ev'ry day

[00:00:23] Drinking corn and hollerin' hooray

[00:00:28] Pianos playing till the break of day

[00:00:32] But as I turned my head I loudly said

[00:00:41] Preach 'em blues sing them blues

[00:00:45] They certainly sound good to me

[00:00:50] I've been in love for the last six months

[00:00:55] And ain't done worrying yet

[00:00:59] Moan'em blues holler them blues

[00:01:04] Let me convert your soul

[00:01:08] 'Cause just a little spirit of the blues tonight

[00:01:13] Let me tell you girls that your man ain't treating you right

[00:01:17] Let me tell you I don't mean no wrong

[00:01:22] I will learn you something if you listen to this song

[00:01:27] I ain't here to try to save your soul just

[00:01:31] Want to teach you how to save your good jelly roll

[00:01:36] Going on down the line a little further now

[00:01:40] There's many a poor woman down

[00:01:44] Read on down to chapter nine

[00:01:48] Woman must learn how to take their time

[00:01:53] Read on down to chapter ten

[00:01:57] Taking other women's men you are doing a sin

[00:02:02] Sing'em sing'em sing them blues

[00:02:06] Let me convert your soul

[00:02:27] Now one one sister by the name of Sister Green

[00:02:32] Jumped up and done a shimmy you ain't never seen

[00:02:36] Sing'em sing'em sing them blues

[00:02:41] Let me convert your soul
