Thank you my audiophile friend SGT (Join to see) for posting the audio recording of Robert Johnson performing 'Preaching Blues (Up Jumped the Devil) [Keb' Mo lipsyncing] in recognition of the fact that on August 16, 1938, Delta-blues singer and guitarist Robert Johnson died at the age of 27.
[Keb' Mo lipsyncing to Robert Johnson's classic Preachin' Blues.]
Preaching Blues (Up Jumped the Devil)
Lyrics
Mmmmm mmmmm
I's up this mornin', ah, blues walkin' like a man
I's up this mornin', ah, blues walkin' like a man
Worried blues, give me your right hand
And the blues fell mama's child, tore me all upside down
Blues fell mama's child, and it tore me all upside down
Travel on, poor Bob, just can't turn you 'round
The blues, is a low-down shakin' chill
(spoken: Yes, preach 'em now)
Mmmmm mmmmm
Is a low-down shakin' chill
You ain't never had 'em I, hope you never will
Well, the blues, is a achin' old heart disease
(spoken: Do it now, you gon' do it? Tell me all about it)
The blues, is a low-down achin' heart disease
Like consumption, killing me by degrees
I can study rain, oh oh drive, oh oh drive my blues
I been studyin' the rain and, I'm 'on drive my blues away
Goin' to the 'stil'ry1, stay out there all day
Lyrics
"I'm gonna get me some religion
I'm gonna join the Baptist church
I'm gonna get me some religion
I'm gonna join the Baptist church
Gonna be a preacher
So I don't have to work
I wish I had a heaven
A heaven of my own
I wish I had a heaven
A heaven of my own
Give all of my women
A long and happy home
I'm gonna preach these blues
I'm gonna pick my seat and sit down
I'm gonna preach these blues
I'm gonna pick my seat and sit down
'Cause when the spirit comes
Lord knows I'm gonna watch it too
Grabbed up my suitcase
And took off down the road
Grabbed up my suitcase
And took off down the road
I said farewell my church
May the good Lord bless your soul
Bless your soul
Bless your soul
Bless your soul
Bless your soul
In honor of the death of on
