Текст песни: Joe Turner Blues + перевод

This is a song was sung back in 18 and 92

There was a terrible flood that year

People lost everything they had

Their crops, their live stock

That means their horses, their mules, cows

Goats and everything they had on their farm

And they would start cryin' and singin' this song

They tell me, Joe Turner been here and gone

Lord, they tell me, Joe Turner been here and gone

They tell me, Joe turner been here and gone

Then they would go out hunting rabbits, 'coons and 'possoms

Anything they could catch

Sometimes they would catch something, then again they didn’t

And when they would come home, they would find

Flour meat and molasses

In their homes and they would know that

Joe Turner had been there and left food for them

And they would start cryin' and singin' this song

They tell me, Joe Turner been here and gone

Lord, they tell me, that Joe turner been here and gone

They tell me, Joe Turner been here and gone

Then they would start out lookin' for wood

And stuff to make a fire

And they would look in their yards, and they would find axes, wood

That Joe Turner had brought there for them

Then they would get happy

And start singin' and cryin' this song

They would get happy and do a little boogie-woogie too
