Bessie Smith Sinful Blues Lyrics

>
I've got my opinion that my man won't act right
So I'm gonna get hard on him, as from this very night
Gonna get me a gun, long as my right arm
Shoot that man because he done me wrong
So now I've got them sinful blues

Look here folks, don't think I'm rough
'Cause I'm a good woman an' I knows my stuff
That's why I'm sinful as can be
My man may look low, but I can't keep
'Cause he knows a lot of little dirty tricks
That's why I'm sinful as can be

Goin' down to the river, take a rope and a rock Tie it round my neck, jump over the top
That's why I'm sinful as can be
I want all you girls to let my man be
Everything he got belongs to me
That's why I'm sinful as can be

Get your pistol, I got mine
Been mistreated, don't mind dyin'
That's why I'm sinful as can be
I told all you girls to lеave my man alone
Therе's nothin' in this street he can't get at home
That's why I'm sinful as can be
>(Kazoo solo)<

Ha-ha!
