Roosevelt Sykes - Fire Detective Blues lyrics
Your rating:
My house burning down : the firemen are taking their time Please Mr fire detective : won't you save this old cabin of mine I spent my money : looking to be happy some day Now my house burning down : I ain't got no place to stay That fire detective : don't mean me no good Let my house burn into ashes : didn't leave me one stick of wood Sat baby : won't you please write to me I'm just as lonesome : as a young man can be My house burned down : didn't leave me a doggone thing Reason why it worries me : to hear that fire bell ring
