I'll Die Tryin'

J.B. Lenoir, vocal & guitar; Sunnyland Slim, piano; unknown bass;
Alfred Wallace, drums. Chicago, late 1952

You ready? Master number one-o-ten,
take one.

If I don't get you, I will lose my life, a-trying,
If 1 don't get you, I will lose my life,
oh, trying;
I can't sleep at night for you resting
on my mind.

My mother told me, love will cause death,
My mother told me, love will cause death;
I'm in love with you, woman,
and I just can't help myself.

I be's down now, woman,
but I won't be down alway, s
I be's down now, woman,
but I won't be down alway;
The sun is gonna shine in my back door
someday.

I went to the station with my ticket
in my hand.
I went to the station with my ticket
in my hand;
if I don't get you. girl, I got to leave this land.
