Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I woke up this mornin'
Feelin' 'round for my shoes
Whereabout I got these
Whoa walkin' blues, well
Woke this mornin'
Feelin' 'round for my shoes
But you know 'bout it, I
Got these old walkin' blues
[Verse 2]
Lord, I feel like blowin' my
Old lonesome horn
Got up this mornin'
And our little bunny, it was gone
Lord, I feel like blowin' my lonesome horn
Well, I got up this mornin'
Whoa, all I had was gone
[Verse 3]
Well, leave this mornin' if I have to
Whoa, ride the blind
I feel mistreated, and I
Don't mind dyin'
Leavin' this mornin'
I have to ride a blind
Babe, I been mistreated
Baby, and I don't mind dyin'
[Verse 4]
Well, some people tell me
That the worried blues ain't bad
Worst old feelin' I most
Ever had, some people tell me
That these old worried, old blues ain't bad
It's the worst old feelin'
I most ever had
[Verse 5]
She got a
Elgin movement from her head down to her toes
Break in on dollar most anywhere she goes
Mmm, ooh, from her head down to her toes
Ah, honey
Lord, she break in on a dollar
Most anywhere she goes
