22-20 Blues - Skip James
Oh Mr Crest oh Mr Crest
How in the world you
Expect for me to rest
Oh Mr Crest Mr Crest
How in the world you
Expect for me to rest
You've got my twenty two twenty
Laying up across my breast
Oh if I send for my baby
And she act a fool
And she don't never come
If I send for my baby
She act a fool
And she don't never come
All the doctors in New York City
I declare they can't help her none
You know sometimes she gets unruly
And she act like she just don't wanna do
Sometimes she gets unruly
And she act like she just don't wanna do
But I get my twenty two twenty
I cut that woman half in two
Oh your thirty three special
Buddy it's most too light
Your thirty three special
Buddy it's most too light
But my twenty two twenty
Will make ev'rything alright
Ah or your fouty four fouty
Buddy it'll do very well
Your fouty four fouty
Buddy it'll do very well
But my twenty two twenty
I declare you it's a burnin' hell
I was stranded on the highway hi
With my twenty two twenty in my
I was standin' on the highway
With my twenty two twenty in my
They got me 'cussed for murder
I declare I never have harmed a man
Lord oh I measured my gun
And it's just a long as my right arm
I measured my gun
And it's just as long as my right
I'm gon' raise me some sand
