[Lyric] Lonesome Blues (Ida Cox)

[Verse 1]
The blues came down my alley and stopped right at my door
The blues came down my alley and stopped right at my door
They made me feel like I've never felt before

[Verse 2]
I'm a good‑hearted woman, never done nobody wrong
I'm a good‑hearted woman, never done nobody wrong
But the better I treat my daddy, the worse we get along

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
If you don't want me daddy, please tell me what to do
If you don't want me daddy, please tell me what to do
I've never loved nobody, daddy, like I'm lovin' you

[Verse 4]
I've got 10 little puppies, 12 little shaggy hounds
I've got 10 little puppies, 12 little shaggy hounds
It takes all 22 to run my good man down
