Travelling Riverside Blues Lyrics

Asked sweet mama, Let me be her kid 

 She said, "You might get hurt if you don't keep it hid" 

 

 Well I know my baby, If I see her in the dark 

 I said I know my rider, If I see her in the dark 

 

 Now, I goin' to Rosedale, Take my rider by my side 

 Still barrelhouse, If it's on the riverside, yeah 

 I know my baby, Lord, I said, "is really sloppy drunk" 

 I know my mama, Lord, a brownskin, but she ain't no plum 

 

 See my baby, tell her, Tell her hurry home 

 Had no lovin', since my baby been gone 

 See my baby, Tell hurry on home 

 I ain't had, Lord, my right mind, Since my rider's been gone 

 

 Hey, she promises, She's my rider 

 I wanna tell you, She's my rider 

 I know you're mine, She's my rider 

 She ain't but sixteen, But she's my rider 

 

 I'm goin' to Rosedale, Take my rider by side 

 Anybody argue with me man, I'll keep them satisfied 

 Well, see my baby, tell her, Tell her the shape I'm in 

 Ain't had no lovin', Lord, since you know when 

 

 Spoken: Why don't you come into my kitchen 

 

 She's a kindhearted lady. She studies evil all the time 

 She's a kindhearted woman. She studies evil all the time 

 

 Squeeze my lemon 'til the juice runs down my leg 

 Squeeze it so hard, I'll fall right out of bed 

 Squeeze my lemon, 'til the juice runs down my leg 

 

 Spoken: I wonder if you know what I'm talkin' about 

 

 Oh, but the way that you squeeze it girl 

 I swear I'm gonna fall right out of bed 

 

 She's a good rider 

 She's my kindhearted lady 

 I'm gonna take my rider by my side 

 I said her front teeth are lined with gold 

 She's gotta mortgage on my body, got a lien on my soul 

 She's my brownskin sugar plum...
