Statesboro Blues - Live At The Final Fillmore East Concert/1971

Wake up, mama, turn your lamp down low
Wake up, mama, but turn your lamp down low
You got no nerve, baby, to turn lamp down from your door

I woke up this morning, I had them Statesboro blues
I woke up this morning, I had them Statesboro blues
Well, I looked over in the corner, baby
Grandma seemed to have them too

Well, my mama died and left me
My poppa died and left me
I ain't good looking, baby
But somewhat I'm sweet and kind

I'm goin' to the country, baby, do you wanna go?
If you can't make it, baby, your sister Lucille said she wanna go
Well, I sure will take her

I love that woman, better than any woman I've ever seen
I love that woman, better than any woman I've ever seen
Well, she treat me like a king, yeah-yeah-yeah
And she look like a doggone queen

Oh, wake up, mama, turn your lamp down low
Wake up, mama, turn your lamp down low
You got no nerve, baby, to turn lamp down from your door

Thank you
I hate to see this old place closed
It's been been a good friend to us
And we've enjoyed it live, it was really nice
Hate to see it closed
