Ma Rainey Stack O Lee Blues Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Stack O' Lee was a bad man
Everybody knows
And when they see Stack O' Lee comin'
They'd give him the road
He was my man
But he done me wrong

[Verse 2]
Stack O' Lee, Stack O' Lee
Was short-tempered and bad
He'd take everything his women would bring
And everything they had
He was my man
But he done me wrong
[Verse 3]
Stack O' Lee's on the warpath
And you'd better run
'Cause Stack O' Lee [?] bad man And he'll kill you just for fun
He was my man
But he done you wrong

[Verse 4]
Stack O' Lee's in jail now
With his face turned to the wall
Pretty women and old corn whiskey
Was the cause of it all
He was my man
But hе done you wrong

[Verse 5]
A hundred-dollar coffin
And a eighty-dollar hat
Carriеd him to the cemetery
But it did not bring him back
He was my man
But he done me wrong
