Lost Wondering Blues - Ma Rainey

I’m leaving this moment with my clothes in my hand

Lord, I’m leaving this moment with my clothes in my hand

I won’t stop going ‘til I find my man

I’m standing here wondering will a matchbox hold my clothes?

Lord, I’m standing here wondering will a matchbox hold my clothes?

I’ve got a trunk too big to be bothered with on the road

I went up on the mountains, turned my face to the sky

Lord, I went up on the mountains, turned my face to the sky

I heard a whisper, it said «Mama, please don’t die»

I turned around to give him my right hand

Lord, I turned around to give him my right hand

When I looked in his face, I was talkin' to my man

Lord, let me yonder, people, my love has been refused, Lord

I said, let me yonder, people, my love has been refused

That’s the reason why mama’s got the lost wandering blues
