Graveyard Dream Blues — текст песни (Smith Bessie)

This blues was written by Ida Cox. Bessie Smith recorded it on 26
September 1923 with Jimmy Jones at the piano, just weeks after Ida`s
recording (on June 23 with Lovie Austin`s Blues Serenaders)
Blues on my mind, blues all around my head
Blues on my mind, and blues all around my head
I dreamed last night that the man that I love was dead
I went to the graveyard, fell down on my knees
I went to the graveyard, fell down on my knees
And I asked the gravedigger to give me back my real good man please
The gravedigger look me in the eye
The gravedigger look me in the eye
Said I`m sorry lady but your man has said his last goodbye
I wrung my hands and I wanted to scream
I wrung my hands and I wanted to scream
But when I woke up I found it was only a dream
