A7 E7It rained five days and the sky turned black as night
B7 A7 E7There's some trouble taking place in the lowlands at night
I woke up this morning, couldn't even get out of my door Woke up this morning, couldn't even get out of my door Sometimes there's so much trouble, a poor girl don't know where to go They rowed a little boat about five miles across the farm They rowed a little boat about five miles across the farm I packed up all my clothes and they rowed me right along It thunders and lightnings and the wind begins to blow It thunders and lightnings and the wind begins to blow There's about a thousand people there, and they ain't got nowhere to go I went up and stood on a high and lonesome hill I went up and stood on a high and lonesome hill I looked down below me on the house I used to live That's how the blues done caused me to pack up my things and go Blues done caused me to pack up my things and go My poor house is gone, I can't live there no more My poor house is gone, I can't live there no more My poor house is gone, I can't live there no more
