Pneumonia Blues. Blind Lemon Jefferson. (1929)

I'm aching all over, believe I got the pneumonia this time

I'm aching all over, believe I got the pneumonia this time

And it's all on account of that lowdown gal of mine

Slinking around the corner, running up alleys too

I said slinking around corners, running up alleys too

Watching my woman trying to see what she going to do

Stood out in the street one cold dark stormy night

I stood out in the street one cold dark stormy night

Trying to see if my good gal going to make it home alright

I believe she's found something that probably made her fall

She must have found something that made her fall

I stood out in the cold all night and she didn't come home at all

Wear BVDs in the winter, traveling around in the rain

Wear BVDs in the winter, traveling around in the rain

Last time my baby give me this pneumonia pain

Now when I die, bury me in a Stetson hat

I said when I die, bury me in a Stetson hat

Tell my good gal I'm going but I'm still standing pat.
