Robert Johnson "Stones in My Passway"

Lyrics to the above.

I got stones in my passway

    and my road seem dark as night

I got stones in my passway

    and my road seem dark as night

I have pains in my hearts

    they have taken my appetite

I have a bird to whistle

    and I have a bird to sing

Have a bird to whistle

    and I have a bird to sing

I got a woman that I'm lovin'

    boy, she don't mean a thing

My enemies have betrayed me

    have overtaken poor Bob at last

My enemies have betrayed me

    have overtaken poor Bob at last

An ' 'ere's one thing certainly

    they have stones all in my pass

Now you tryin' to take my life

    and all my lovin' too

You laid a passway for me

    now what are you trying to do

I'm cryin' please

    plea-ease let us be friends

And when you hear me howlin' in my passway, rider

    plea-ease open your door and let me in

I got three legs to truck home

    boys, please don't block my road

I got three legs to truck home

    boys, please don't block my road

I've been feelin' ashamed 'bout my rider

    babe, I'm booked and I got to go
