Joe Turner Blues lyrics
by Mississippi John Hurt
[Verse 1]
Well, Joe Turner, he's the man I do despise
Joe Turner, he's the man I do despise
He goes around trying to take men's wives
[Verse 2]
Well, Joe Turner, I drove him from my door
Joe Turner, I drove him from my door
Hope to God he don't come back no more
[Verse 3]
Policeman, you better not let him 'round
Policeman, you better not let him 'round
If you do, I'm sure gonna shoot him down
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 1]
Joe Turner, he's the man I do despise
Joe Turner, he's the man I do despise
Goes around trying to take men's wives
[Verse 4]
I left Joe Turner standing in the door
I left Joe Turner standing in the door
Well, he may steal my good girl, all I know
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 5]
Well, Joe Turner, I drove him from my door
Joe Turner, I drove him from my door
Well, he may steal my good girl, all I know
