Stool Pigeon Blues

Brownie McGhee, Lightnin' Hopkins, Sonny Terry

Good Lord, just let me live till tomorrow I'm gonna send you another prayer This is taped Yes, till tomorrow This black man gonna send you another prayer You know, sometimes I begin to wonder What in the world am I doin' over here? You don't love me no more, baby And I can't see the reason why You don't love me no more, baby Po' Lightnin' can't see the reason why You know, I never told you no story If you don't understand that And I never have told you a lie Yeah, the birds was singin' And the wind begin to blow Yeah, the birds was singin' You know, the wind begin to blow You know when a pigeon joined in and went to singin' I never heard such a sweet voice before You know a pigeon mean more than one that fly in the air It can be a stool pigeon You know that's--you know what that is? One that sit on a stool and pimp to the law That is a pigeon I want everybody understand me so they know I just done give up and I ain't gonna try To live they life no more No, no more You know, I ain't gonna find no heaven here Now, no place on earth I go --- Stool Pigeon Blues - Joe Williams, Brownie McGhee, Lightnin' Hopkins and Sonny Terry
