Big Joe Williams 49 Highway Blues Lyrics

Well I'll get up in the morning : catch the Highway
Forty‑Nine
Well well I'm going to look for little Malvina : ooo man
don't say she can't be found

I got a long tall woman : live on Highway Forty‑Nine
Well well I get up in the morning : ooo Lord boys she's
down on my mind

Malvina my sweet woman : she don't pay me no mind
You got poor Joe walking down woman : ooo Lord Highway
Forty‑Nine

[I'm going to, if I] get up in the morning Malvina : I
believe I'll dust my bed I'm going down Highway Forty‑Nine : boys I'm going to be
rocking to my head

If you ever get the blues : catch the Highway Forty‑Nine
Well Malvina my sweet woman : ooo Lord boys she don't pay
me no mind

Soon this morning boys : I may roll in Jackson town
I done got tired of laying around : walking that Highway
Forty‑Nine

I'm standing in Chicago mama : New Orleans on my mind
Malvina she's my sweet woman : she on Highway Forty‑Nine
