Текст песни: Preaching Blues + перевод

Down in Atlanta G A

Under the viaduct every day

Drinkin' corn and howlin' «Hurray!»

Piano’s playin' till the break of day;

But as I turned my head

I loudly said;

Preach therm blues

Sing them blues

They certainly sound good to me!

I’ve been in love for the past six months

And I ain’t done worryin' yet!

Moan them blues

Holler them blues

Let me convert your soul!

'Cause just a little spirit of the blues tonight;

Let me tell you girls that your man ain’t treating you right!

Let me tell you, I don’t mean no wrong

I will learn you somethin' if you listen to this song!

I ain’t here to try to save your soul

Just want to teach you how to save your good jelly roll!

Goin' on down the line a little further now

There’s a-many a poor woman down;

Read on down to chapter nine

Women must learn how to take their time!

Read on down to chapter ten

Takin' other women’s men, you are doin' a sin!

Sing 'em, sing 'em, sing them blues

Let me convert your soul!

Now one sister by the name of Sister Green

Jumped up and done a shimmy you ain’t never seen!

Sing 'em, sing 'em, sing them blues

Let me convert your soul!
