Driving Wheel Blues - Roosevelt Sykes

My baby don’t have to worry

She don’t have to rob and steal

My baby don’t have to worry

She don’t have to rob and steal

I give her everything she needs

I am her driving wheel

She left me this morning

She said she would be back soon

She left me this morning

She said she would be back soon

She’ll be back early Friday morning

Either Saturday in the afternoon

Every time she walks

She shake like a leaf trembling on a tree

Every time she walks

She shake like a leaf trembling on a tree

She said,"Come home, daddy

Here’s where you get steak, potatoes and tea"
