Текст песни: Turpentine Blues + перевод

Turpentine’s all right, provided that wages are good

Turpentine’s all right, provided that wages are good

But i can make more money now, by somewhere choppin' hardwood

Turpentine business ain’t like it used to be

Turpentine business ain’t like it used to be

I can’t make enough money now, to even get on a spree

I ain’t gonna work no more, i tell you the reason why

I ain’t gonna work no more, tell you the reason why

Because everybody wants to sell, and nobody wants to buy

You can work in the field, you can work at the sawmill too

You can work in the field, you can work at the sawmill too

But you can’t make no money, at nothin' you try to do

So lordy please tell me what we turpentine people are gonna do

Lordy please tell me what we turpentine people gonna do

We may work one week, but we got to lay off a month or two

Turpentine is like dice, to shoot you up on the loose

Turpentine is just like dice, to shoot you up on the loose

That’s the reason why, i’ve got those turpentine blues
