Statesboro Blues  The Devil Makes Three

Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
Won't you [A]wake up momma, turn your lamp down [E]low
Do you [B7]have the nerve to [A]drive me from your [E]door?
I said that gater left Savannah, Lord, it could not stop
You should have seen that colored farmer when he got that boiler hot
Reach o[A]ver in the corner mama, won't you hand me my travelling [E]shoes
Well [B7]Lord, my god, I [A]got me them Statesboro [E]blues
Solo: E E A A E E B7 A E E
Well, my [E]momma died and left me reckless
My poppa died and left me wild, wild, wild
Well my [A]mama died and left me reckless
Papa died and left me [E]wild
See I [B7]ain't good looking but I'm [A]someone's angel [E]child
I said [E]Mama tell your Papa
Papa tell your sister
Sister tell your uncle
We're going up the country
Wouldn't you like to go?
We're gonna [B7]do one for background
[A]Then do two or three [E]more
Solo: E E A A E E B7 A E E (same as first)
I said that [E]gater left Savannah, Lord, it could not stop
You should have seen that colored farmer when he got that boiler hot
Reach [A]over in the corner mama, won't you hand me my travelling [E]shoes
Well [B7]Lord, my god, I [A]got me them Statesboro [E]blues
Yeah [B7]Lord, my god, I [A]got me them Statesboro [E]blues...
