If I Had Possession over Judgement Day - Rory Block

If I had possession over judgement day

If I had possession over judgement day

Lord, the little woman I’m lovin' wouldn’t have no right to pray

And I went to the mountain, lookin' far as my eyes could see

And I went to the mountain, lookin' far as my eyes could see

Some other man got my woman and the 'a lonesome blues got me

And I rolled and I tumbled and I cried the whole night long

And I rolled and I tumbled and I cried the whole night long

Boy, I woke up this mornin', my biscuit roller gone

Had to fold my armes and I slowly walked away

(spoken: 'I didn’t like the way she done.')

Had to fold my armes and I slowly walked away

I said in my mind, Yo' trouble gon' come someday

Now run here, baby, set down on my knee

Now run here, baby, set down on my knee

I wanna tell you all about the way they treated me
