Down the Dirt Road Blues - Charley Patton

Written by：Charley Patton

I'm goin' away to a world unknown

I'm goin' away to a world unknown

I'm worried now but I won't be worried long

My rider got somethin' she's tryin'a keep it hid

My rider got somethin' she's tryin'a keep it hid

Lord I got somethin' to find that somethin' with

I feel like choppin' chips flyin' everywhere

I feel like choppin' chips flyin' everywhere

I been to the nation oh Lord but I couldn't stay there

Some people say them oversea blues ain't bad

Some people say them oversea blues ain't bad

What was a matter with 'em

It must not a-been them oversea blues I had

Every day seem like murder here

My God I'm no sheriff

Every day seem like murder here

I'm gonna leave tomorrow I know you don't bid my care

Can't go down any dirt road by myself

Can't go down any dirt road by myself

My Lord who ya gonna carry

I don't carry my gonna carry me someone else
