Revenue Man Blues

Revenue Man Blues - Charley Patton

Lord, the revenue men is ridin', boy, you'd better look out

Aw, sure, if it ain't Purvis

Lord, the revenue men is ridin', boy, you'd better look out

Boy, if he hollers at you, you don't stop, boy

If he hollers at you, don't stop, you will likely be knocked out

Well, I don't allow her salt water, well, she always wants a drink

Got to have a drink

I don't allow her salt water, she always wants a drink

Wanna drink? See you with a bottle, though

If they see you with a bottle, they will almost break your neck

Oh, take me home through, Lord, that shy nest door

Aw, sure

I said take me home through that shy nest door

She don't need no telephone to get there, aw, sure

She don't need no telephone, daddy will take you in his car

Oh, come on mama, let us go to the edge of town

Aw, sure

Come on, mama, let us go to the edge of town

Baby, I know where Charley's got his other nest built at

I know where there's another bird nest built down on the ground

Oh, I wake up every mornin' now with the jinx all around my bed

Aw, sure

I wakes up every mornin' with the jinx all around my bed
