[00:00:00] TB Woman Blues - Lead Belly (利德·贝利)

[00:00:05] It's too late too late too late too late too late

[00:00:15] It's too late too late too late too late too late

[00:00:23] I'm on my way to Deadville and mama must I hesitate

[00:00:32] She was runnin' with 25 or 30 men And one man in the bus she liked bestest of them all

[00:00:39] He was a sweetback man And the mens was comin' around they asks her what she want

[00:00:45] She didn't want nothin' from them then

[00:00:47] But when her sweetback man come around to ask her for one dime you didn't see her no more

[00:00:52] Her mama walked up and said "Darlin' don't you worry"

[00:00:55] She looked at her mama and here' what she said:

[00:00:58] T B 's alright to have if your friends'd treat you so low down

[00:01:07] T B 's alright to have friends'd treat you so low down

[00:01:16] Don't you ask 'em for no favors they even stop a-comin' around

[00:01:24] Mama said "Daughter don't you worry" she looked at her mama here' what she said:

[00:01:28] Mmmmmm the T B 's killin' me

[00:01:36] Mmmmmm the T B 's killin' me

[00:01:45] I'm a-like a prisoner I'm always a-workin' this chain

[00:01:53] Her mama walked up to her daughter and said "Don't you worry"

[00:01:57] She began to think about it but she was on her feet

[00:02:00] Wearin' her high-heel slippers and her drop-stitch hose

[00:02:04] She walked around to her mama here' what she said:

[00:02:07] And it's on my feet couldn' even but walk down the streetWhere the men a-lookin' at me from my head to my feet

[00:02:16] But it's late now that T B s killin' me

[00:02:23] I want my body buried in the deep blue sea

[00:02:29] These are the last few words she said

[00:02:31] Her mama walked up looked down in her daughter's face and here' what her daughter said:

[00:02:38] Mmmmmmmmmm

[00:02:45] MmmmmmmmmmmmmMmmm

[00:02:54] I've got a-too-bercolosis consumption is killin' me
