"C.C. Rider" lyrics

"C.C. Rider"
(originally by Ma Rainey)

C.C. rider
See what you have done?
Oh Lord, C.C. rider
See what you have done?
Well, you made me love you
Now your gals done come

Come with me baby
Well, I won't be back till fall
Oh Lord
Come with me baby
Well, I won't be back till fall
If I find me a good man, well
I won't come back at all

I wanna buy me a pistol
Just as long as I am tall
Oh Lord
Shoot my man and catch Cannonball
If he won't have me
He won't get nobody at all

C.C. rider
Well, where did you stay last night?
Oh, baby, grab your shoes and raise up
Your clothes don't fit you right
Oh, you didn't come home
Till the Sun shine down

C.C. rider
See what you won't done
Oh Lord, C.C. rider
What have you done?
You made me love you
Now your gals done come

C.C. rider
What did you do with your shoes?
Your clothes are bad
