Woke up this morning, feel ’round for my shoes,
You know ’bout that babe, had them old walkin’ blues.
Woke up this morning, I feel ’round for my shoes,
You know ’bout that babe, Lord, I had them old walkin’ blues.
Leavin’ this morning, I had to go ride the blinds.
I’ve been mistreated, don’t mind dying.
This morning, I had to go ride the blinds,
I’ve been mistreated, Lord, I don’t mind dying.
People tell me walkin’ blues ain’t bad;
Worst old feeling I most ever had.
People tell me the old walkin’ blues ain’t bad.
Well it’s the worst old feeling, Lord, I most ever had.
ALBERTA (traditional)
Alberta, Alberta,
Where you been so long?
Alberta, Alberta,
Where you been so long?
Ain’t had no loving
Since you’ve been gone.
Alberta, Alberta,
Where’d you stay last night?
Alberta, Alberta
Where’d you stay last night?
Come home this morning,
Clothes don’t fit you right
Alberta, Alberta,
Girl, you’re on my mind.
Alberta, Alberta,
Girl, you’re on my mind.
Ain’t had no loving
Such a great long time.
Alberta, Alberta,
Where you been so long?
Alberta, Alberta,
Where you been so long?
Ain’t had no loving
Since you’ve been gone.
