Furry Lewis I Will Turn Your Money Green Lyrics

When I was in Missouri : would not let me be
Wouldn't rest content : till I came to Tennessee

If you follow me baby : I'll turn your money green
I show you more money : Rockerfeller ever seen

If the river was whiskey : baby and I was a duck
I'd dive to the bottom : Lord and I'd never come up

Lord the woman I hate : I see her every day
But the woman I love : she's so far away

Talk about *sweetheart* : I declare I'm a honest man Give my woman so many dollars : it broke her apron string

All she give me was trouble : I'm troubled all the time
I been troubled so long : trouble don't worry my mind

I been down so long : it seem like up to me
Woman I love : she done quit poor me

What's the need of me hollering : what's the need of me
crying
Woman I love : she don't pay me no mind
