Blind Lemon Jefferson is a comin' Tap tap tappin' with his cane Blind Lemon Jefferson is a comin' Tap tap tappin' with his cane His last ditch lies down
I wanna go home and I ain't got sufficient clothes Doggone my bad luck soul Wanna go home and I ain't got sufficient clothes I mean sufficient, talking
I'm broke and hungry, ragged and dirty too I said I?m broke and hungry, ragged and dirty too Mama, if I clean up, can I go home with you? I'm motherless
Hangman's rope is so tough and strong Oh, the hangman's rope is so tough and strong They gonna hang me because I done something wrong I wanna tell you
Blind Lemon Jefferson is a-coming Tap tap tappin with his cane Blind Lemon Jefferson is a-coming Tap tap tappin with his cane His last ditch lies down
