《Preachin’ the Blues》歌词

[00:00:01] Preachin' the Blues - Bessie Smith

[00:00:14] Down in Atlanta 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

[00:00:42] "Preach 'em blues sing them blues"

[00:00:47] They certainly sound good to me

[00:00:51] I've been in love for the last six months

[00:00:56] And ain't done worrying yet

[00:01:00] Moan'em blues holler them blues

[00:01:05] Let me convert your soul

[00:01:09] 'Cause just a little spirit of the blues tonight

[00:01:14] Let me tell you girls that your man ain't treating you right

[00:01:19] Let me tell you I don't mean no wrong

[00:01:23] I will learn you something if you listen to this song

[00:01:29] I ain't here to try to save your soul just want to teach

[00:01:34] You how to save your good

[00:01:36] Jelly roll

[00:01:38] Going on down the line a little further now

[00:01:42] There's many a poor woman down

[00:01:47] Read on down to chapter nine

[00:01:51] Woman must learn how to take their time

[00:01:56] Read on down to chapter ten

[00:01:59] Taking other women's men you are doing a sin

[00:02:04] Sing'em sing'em sing them blues

[00:02:08] Let me convert your soul

[00:02:30] Now one sister by the name of Sister Green

[00:02:35] Jumped up and done a shimmy you ain't never seen

[00:02:40] Sing'em sing'em sing them blues

[00:02:44] Let me convert your soul
