Sonny Boys Jump - Sonny Boy Williamson

When my baby left me

My baby left me a mule to ride

When my baby left me

My baby left me a mule to ride

Now when the train left the station

My mule laid down an died

You know I sent my baby

You know, a brand new twenty dollar bill

You know I sent my baby

You know a brand new twenty dollar bill

Now if that don’t bring her back

I’m sho' my shotgun will

Now if I can’t come in

Let me sit down in front of your do'

Now if I can’t come in

Let me sit down in front of your do'

I’ll leave so early in the mo’nin

Your real man would never know

Lake Michigan ain’t no river

Chicago ain’t no hill town

Lake Michigan ain’t no river

An Chicago ain’t no hill in town

But if I feel this-a way tomorrow

I swear I’ll be Memphis bound
