Revenue Man Blues (Version 2)

Charley Patton
Listen to artist

Ah, the revenue man1 is runnin', boy, you'd better look out
Ah, the revenue man is runnin', boy, you'd better look out
(spoken: Boy, if he calls you, you don't stop, boy)
If he hollers, you don't stop, you will likely be knocked out

Oh, my doe loves her water, well, she always wants a drink
(spoken: Got to have a drink)
My doe loves her water, she always wants a drink
(spoken: Boy, if they see you with a bottle though)
If they see you with a bottle, they will almost break the neck

Oh, take me home to, Lord, that shiny star
I said take me home to that shiny star
(spoken: She don't need no tellin', daddy)
She don't need no tellin', dad will take you in his car

Oh, come on mama, let us, go to the edge of town
Come on mama, let us, go to the edge of town
(spoken: Baby, I know where there's a bird's nest built at)
I know where there's a bird's nest, built out on the ground

Oh, I wake up every mornin', now, with a jinx all around my bed
I wakes up every mornin', with a jinx all around my bed
(spoken: You know I had a jinx here)
I been a good book abider, but, I believe I've been misled
