Bessie Smith-Black Mountain Blues

Back in Black Mountain a child will smack your face

Back in Black Mountain a child will smack your face

Babies cryin' for liquor and all the birds sing bass

Black Mountain people are bad as they can be

Black Mountain people are bad as they can be

They uses gunpowder just to sweeten their tea

Back in Black Mountain can't keep a man in jail

Back in Black Mountain can't keep a man in jail

If the jury finds him guilty the judge'll throw they bail

Had a man in Black Mountain sweetest man in town

Had a man in Black Mountain the sweetest man in town

He met a city gal and he throwed me down

I'm bound for Black Mountain me and my razor and my gun

Lord I'm bound for Black Mountain me and my razor and gun

I'm gonna shoot him if he stands still and cut him if he runs

Down in Black Mountain they all shoot quick and straight

Down in Black Mountain they all shoot quick and straight

The bullet'll get you if you start dodgin' too late

Got the devil in my soul and I'm full of bad booze

Got the devil in my soul and I'm full of bad booze

I'm out here for trouble I've got the Black Mountain blues
