Lyrics
Willow Weep Blues
When your woman is lying moaning on that bed
And your children are crying, and all she wants is that bread
Oh Lord what can I do, She's still in love with that silver spoon
And I'm so tired, Oh Lord I'm tired
Rainy morning, You know it rained all night
Rainy morning, Put your daughter down deep
Let the sky turn to thunder, Lamenting willow weep
Don't need no money, Girl has gone away
If I had some , it wouldn't buy another day
Cause I'm so tired, Yes I'm so tired
Yes I'm so tired, Oh Lord I'm tired
