Kokomo Arnold — Old Black Cat Blues (Jinx Blues) lyrics

Lyrics

I believe, that I got those black cat blues
I believe, that I got those black cat blues
Lord if I win on Friday, please Saturday night I’m sure to lose
Yes the black cat blues mama, ain’t nothing but a doggone heart disease
Yes the black cat blues mama, ain’t nothing but a doggone heart disease
Said I was broke and disgusted, I didn’t have no money for Christmas Eve
Yes this black cat blues mama, don’t mean no one nar' no good
Yes this black cat blues mama, don’t mean no one nar' no good
Said all my friends done forgot me, everybody’s down on me in my neighborhood
Lord some folks said blues and trouble nothing, but evil running across your
mind
Lord some folks said blues and trouble nothing, but evil running across your
mind
When you get to setting down thinking, about the black gal treated you so nice
and kind
Oh if the black cat blues was money, I would be rich as Henry Ford
Oh if the black cat blues was money, I would be rich as Henry Ford
Lord if the black cat blues don’t leave me mama, Lord I’ve got to get further
down the road
