Bessie Smith - Boweavil Blues Lyrics
Hey boweavil don't bring them blues no moreHey boweavil don't bring them blues no moreBoweavil's here, boweavil's everywhere you goI'm a lone boweavil, been out a great long timeI'm a lone boweavil, been out a great long timeFor to sing this song, to ease boweavil's troublin' mindI don't want no sugar put into my teaI don't want no sugar put into my teaThe mens are so evil, I'm scared they might poison meI went downtownI bought myself a hatI brought it back homeI laid it on the shelfI looked in my bedroomTired sleepin' by myselfI'm tired sleepin' by myself
