Dust My Blues - Elmore James & His Broom Dusters

I’m gonna get up in the mornin'

I believe I’ll dust my broom

I believe I’ll dust my broom

Girlfriend, the black man you been lovin'

Girlfriend, can get my room

I’m gon' write a letter

Telephone every town I know

Telephone every town I know

If I can’t find her in West Helena

She must be in East Monroe, I know

I don’t want no woman

Wants every downtown man she meet

Wants every downtown man she meet

She’s a no good doney

They shouldn’t 'low her on the street

I believe, I believe I’ll go back home

I believe, I believe I’ll go back home

You can mistreat me here, babe

But you can’t when I go home

And I’m gettin' up in the morning

I believe I’ll dust my broom

I believe I’ll dust my broom

Girlfriend, the black man that you been lovin'

Girlfriend, can get my room

I’m gon' call up Chiney

She is my good girl over there

She is my good girl over there

If I can’t find her on Philippine’s Island

She must be in Ethiopia somewhere
