[00:00:00] Backwater Blues - Dinah Washington (黛娜·华盛顿)

[00:00:00] Written by：Bessie Smith

[00:00:30] When it rained five days

[00:00:34] And the skies turned dark at night

[00:00:41] When it rained five days

[00:00:46] And the skies turned dark at night

[00:00:53] There was trouble takin' place

[00:00:57] In the lowland at night

[00:01:05] I woke up this mornin'

[00:01:10] Couldn't even get out of my door

[00:01:18] I woke up this mornin'

[00:01:21] Couldn't even get out of my door

[00:01:27] Enough trouble to make a poor woman

[00:01:33] Wonder where she's gonna go

[00:01:41] They rowed a little boat

[00:01:44] About five miles across the farm

[00:01:51] Said they rowed a little boat

[00:01:55] About five miles across the farm

[00:02:02] I packed up all of my clothes trowed them in

[00:02:07] And they rowed me along

[00:02:13] Where it thundered and lightnin'

[00:02:19] And the wind began to blow

[00:02:27] Said it thundered and lightnin'

[00:02:31] And the wind began to blow

[00:02:35] There was thousands of people

[00:02:41] They had no place to go

[00:02:48] I went out and stood up

[00:02:53] On a high old lonesome hill

[00:03:00] I went out and stood up

[00:03:03] On a high old lonesome hill

[00:03:09] I looked down on the house

[00:03:15] Where I used to live

[00:03:20] Back water blues that calls me

[00:03:26] To pack my things and go

[00:03:32] Back water blues that calls me

[00:03:38] To pack my things and go

[00:03:43] Cause my house fell down

[00:03:48] And I can't live there no more

[00:03:52] Ooh I can't live there no more

[00:03:56] Ooh I can't live there no more

[00:04:11] There ain't no place for a poor woman to go
