Testo Delta Getaway - Eric Bibb
Testo della canzone Delta Getaway (Eric Bibb), tratta dall'album Migration Blues
Heart full of trouble
Weighin' down like lead
Prayin' to Jesus
I don't wake up dead
Saw a man hangin' from a cypress tree
I seen the ones who done it
Now they comin' after me
With a razor in my hand
I don't wanna use
Got a song in my bones
Call it the blues
Runnin' an' hidin'
Did I hear a hound bark?
Sleepin' by day
Movin' after dark
Headed for Chicago with a heavy load
Tryin' to get to Memphis on a midnight road
With a razor in my hand
I don't wanna use
Got a song in my bones
Call it the blues
Tell you people
If you dare to hear
It's a crime an' a shame
The way we're livin' in fear
It's not God's will
To keep the Black man down
With your evil Jim Crow
An' your sundown towns
With a razor in my hand
People, I don't wanna use
Got a song in my bones, uh
Call it the blues
Hmm-mm
