I Keep On Drinkin (To Drive My Blues Away)

This two-part songs, covering both sides of Vocalion 03037, was recorded in Chicago on 11 July 1935. Bumble Bee Slim was accompanied by piano and guitar (both unknown).

From the CD "Booze & The Blues" (Columbia Roots 'n' Blues series)

PART I

Take me back baby, raise me to your hand

Some day honey I'll become a lucky man

I keep on drinkin', tryin' to drive my blues away

Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday

You can call me crazy, but I ain't nobody's fool

While I stand your doggin' I kick just like a mule

And I keep on drinkin', tryin' to drive my blues away

Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday

Woman I love she done gone back home

Every time she leave me she make my blood run warm

And I keep on drinkin', tryin' to drive my blues away

Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday

I wouldn't drink no whiskey but I cannot help myself

Wouldn't be lovin' you mama if I could love someone else

So I keep on drinkin', tryin' to drive my blues away

Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday

Blues ain't nothin' but a good man feelin' bad

Thinkin' about the good times that he once has had

And I keep on drinkin', tryin' to drive my blues away

Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday

I ain't gonna tell nobody that I ain't gonna drink no more

I don't feel welcome no place I go

So I keep on drinkin', tryin' to drive my blues away

Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday

PART II

Too bad mama that we can't get along

When I think I'm doin' right I'm doin' wrong

I keep on drinkin', tryin' to drive my blues away

Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday

You talkin' about your troubles but I'll bet you I've had mine

That's why you see me drinkin' all the time

I keep on drinkin', tryin' to drive my blues away

Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday

Woman I love got a mouth full of gold

Ev'ry time she smile my blood runs cold

I keep on drinkin', tryin' to drive my blues away

Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday

Make me do what I used to mama, once more anyhow

You ain't got nobody else doin' it now

I keep on drinkin', tryin' to drive my blues away

Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday

My blues fell this mornin', and my love comes fallin' down

I'll be your dog mama don't you dog me around

I keep on drinkin', tryin' to drive my blues away

Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday

Goodbye old gal I'm goin' to leave you now

You know darn well you didn't love me no how

So I keep on drinkin', tryin' to drive my blues away

Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday

You been doin' what I think you been doin' baby, can't do that 'round here

Here you come mam big as hell, tell what you been doin' by way you smell

So keep on truckin' mama, truckin' my blues away

What's that smell like fish pretty baby, I really would like to know

Tell me What's that smell like fish oh mama, I really would like to know

That ain't puddin' baby ain't no pie, it's the stuff that I got you by

So keep on truckin' mama, truckin' my blues away

Now yes you gotta leave this mornin', get your yas yas outta my door

Now yes you gotta leave this mornin', get your yas yas outta my door

Ashes to ashes mama, dust to dust, what-cha gonna do when that damn thing rusts

So keep on truckin' mama, truckin' my blues away

Это не тот текст. В том тексте были слова:

(начало фразы утеряно)

...sixteen years old, she says, "Bill stop drinkin', I will satisfy your soul"

But I just keep on-a drinkin', yeah, I keep on drinkin'

Yeah, I just keep on drinkin', till good liquor carry me down

Вот о каком тексте речь.

Спасибо.

–Evrica!

Полностью первый куплет звучит так:

When I know a little girl about sixteen years old,

She says, "Bill stop drinkin', I will satisfy your soul"

But I just keep on-a drinkin', yeah, I keep on drinkin'

Yeah, I just keep on drinkin', till good liquor carry me down

Жду с благодарностью полный вариант, очень желательно с табами исполнения...

Майкер.
