Devil's Island Gin Blues - Roosevelt Sykes

Give me one more drink

Of that Devil's Island Gin

Give me one more drink

Of that Devil's Island Gin

I've been drunk once tonight

And I want to get drunk, again

Take me back, baby

Lord, I won't get drunk no mo'

You just take me back, baby

I won't get drunk no mo'

I'll guarantee I'll let all whiskey, go

(piano)

Listen here, little girl

Don't you wanna go downtown with me?

Listen here, little girl

Don't you wanna go downtown with me?

Yes, I'm in love with you

An I just can't let you be

Oh yes, oh yes

Oh yes, I know

Oh yes, little girl

Oh yes, oh yes, I know

Keep me worried and bothered

Troubled ev'rywhere I go

(piano)

Take yo time, mama

Lord, do yourself some good

Take some time, little girl

And do yourself some good

I want you to do

Most ev'rything that you should

(piano)

Oh Lord, the sky looks mighty blue

Oh baby, sky looks might blue

An I feel lonesome, 'cause

Mama lost without you

(piano)

'Oh, shake that thing!'

'Better watch that, hear'

'Well!'

'All night'

Oh, you learn, tomorrow

'Bout a month ago

You'll learn tomorrow, night

'Bout a month ago

Couple bottles of mo' gin

Mama, Lordy, an I had to go.
