Seven Sister Blues-Edward Thompson
A position, standard tuning

Coal black woman, fry no meat for me
A coal black woman can't fry no meat for me
You know, black is evil, that gal may poison me

I got a new way of spelling sweet old Tennessee
New way of spelling sweet old Tennessee
New way of spelling sweet old Tennessee
Double T, double N, double T, double S, you see

Well, she rolled and tumbled and cried the whole night long
Rolled and tumbled, cried the whole night long
Rolled and tumbled, cried the whole night long
She received the message that the man she loved was gone

SPOKEN, DURING SOLO: How'd she cry?

Said, my love like water, it turns off and on
Love like water, it turns off and on
Love like water, it turns off and on
When you think I'm lovin', I done turned off and gone

When the dead wagon rolled up with the rumblin' sound
Dead wagon rolled up with the rumblin' sound
Dead wagon rolled up with the rumblin' sound
Said, I know by that my gal were graveyard bound
