Robert Johnson lyrics

Last Fair Deal Gone Down blues lyrics

It's the last fair deal goin' down, last fair deal goin' down,
It's the last fair deal goin' down, good Lord,
On that Gulfport Island Road.
Eh, Ida Belle, don't cry this time, Ida Belle, don't cry this time.
If you cry about a nickel, you'll die 'bout a dime,
She wouldn't cry, but the money won't mine.
I love the way you do, I love the way you do,
I love the way you do, good Lord,
On this Gulfport Island Road.
My captain's so mean on me, my captain's so mean on me,
My captain's so mean on m'-mmmmm, good Lord,
On this Gulfport Island Road.
Hey cap', A, B and C,
Cap', A, B and C
Well I s'* cap, A, B and C, good lord
On that Gulfport Island Road.
Ah, this last fair deal goin' down, it's the last fair deal goin' down,
This' the last fair deal goin' down, good Lord,
On this Gulfport Island Road.
I'm workin' my way back home, I'm workin' my way back home,
I'm workin' my way back home, good Lord,
On this Gulfport Island Road.
And that thing don't keep a-ringin' so soon,
that thing don't keep a-ringin' so soon,
And that thing don't keep a-ringin' so soon, good Lord,
On that Gulf and Port Island Road.
