Blind Lemon Jefferson — Low Down Mojo Blues lyrics

Lyrics

I wonder why: my partner sitting around looking sad
I mean the woman if she quit me: it’s going to be too
black bad
She’s a fair made woman: and she’s cunning as a squirrel
When she starts to loving: man it’s out the world
Oh she’s a dark brownskin: we always call her chocolate
drop
If the fool starts a‑loving: man it just won’t stop
When I first met the woman: I says I hadn’t made no hit
She got this old‑fashioned loving: man it just won’t
quit
I met her at a *sociable*: she acts just like a crook
Lord when she starts to loving: man it ain’t in the book
