Bessemer Bound Blues

Woke up this morning : looking for my darn old shoes
Because mama's going home : singing the Bessemer blues

Apple sugar papa : how come you do me like you do
I've done everything you asked me : trying to get along with you

I went in the water : walked through ice and snow
But from now on papa : I won't be your dog no more

Electric all right and light shine nice and bright
But I'd rather be in Memphis : reading by a candle light
