[00:00:01] Lyrics by：Bessie Smith

[00:00:02] Composed by：Bessie Smith

[00:00:04] When it rained five days and the sky turned dark as night

[00:00:14] When it rained five days and the sky turned dark as night

[00:00:23] Then trouble's takin' place in the lowlands at night

[00:00:32] I woke up this mornin' can't even get out of my door

[00:00:41] I woke up this mornin' can't even get out of my door

[00:00:51] There's enough trouble to make a poor girl

[00:00:54] Wonder where she wanna go

[00:00:59] Then they rowed a little boat about five miles 'cross the pond

[00:01:08] Then they rowed a little boat about five miles 'cross the pond

[00:01:18] I packed all my clothes throwed 'em in

[00:01:20] And they rowed me along

[00:01:27] When it thunders and lightnin' and the wind begins to blow

[00:01:35] When it thunders and lightnin' and the wind begins to blow

[00:01:44] There's thousands of people ain't got no place to go

[00:01:53] And I went and stood up on some high old lonesome hill

[00:02:02] And I went and stood up on some high old lonesome hill

[00:02:11] Then looked down on the house were I used to live

[00:02:20] Backwater blues done called me to pack my things and go

[00:02:29] Backwater blues done called me to pack my things and go

[00:02:38] 'Cause my house fell down and I can't live there no more

[00:02:47] Mmm I can't move no more

[00:02:56] Mmm I can't move no more

[00:03:04] There ain't no place for a poor old girl to go
