Roosevelt Sykes - Kelly's 44 Blues lyrics

Lord I say good morning Mr pawnshop man, as I walked in his door Lord I say good morning Mr pawnshop man, as I walked in his door I says I feel bad this morning, and I really wants my forty-four Lord I was at a party last night, I was out there till about half past two Lord I was at a party last night, I was out there till about half past two I'm going back out there tonight, I'm out to have some shooting to do Lord the policeman walked around me, they walked around me both night and day Lord the policeman walked around me, they walked around me both night and day When they know I got my forty-four, they won't have a word to say Then I made up in my mind, and I really, don't care how I go Then I made up in my mind, and I simply don't care how I go Before I'll be mistreated, I'm going to shoot my forty-four
