Folk and Traditional Song Lyrics:
If I Had Possession Over Judgment Day
If I Had Possession Over Judgment Day
If I Had Possession Over Judgment Day
(Robert Johnson)
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 an' I tumbled and I cried the whole night long.
And I rolled an' I tumbled and I cried the whole night long.
Boy, I woke up this mornin' and my biscuit roller gone.
Had to fold my arms and I slowly walked away.
Spoken (I didn't like the way she done)
Had to fold my arms and I slowly walked away.
I said in my mind, "Yo' trouble gonna come some day."
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.
