Mississippi John Hurt

Richland Woman Blues

by Mississippi John Hurt
Mississippi John Hurt

Biography:

John Smith Hurt, better known as Mississippi John Hurt (July 3, 1893 or March 8, 1892 - November 2, 1966) was an American country blues singer and guitarist.

Raised in Avalon, Mississippi, Hurt taught himself how to play the guitar around age nine. Singing to a melodious finger-picked accompaniment, he began to play local dances and parties while working as a sharecropper. He first recorded for Okeh Records in 1928, but these were commercial failures.

F C
Gimme red lipstick and a bright purple rouge
G C
A shingle bob haircut and a shot of good booze
F C
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' your horn
G C
If you come too late, sweet mama will be gone



F C
Now, I'm raring to go, got red shoes on my feet
G C
My mind is sittin' right for a Tin Lizzie seat
F C
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' you horn
G C
If you come too late, sweet mama will be gone



F C
I'd like to fashion shop, and get the one looks best.
G C
Your sister sweet mama wants a brand new dress.
F C
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' you horn
G C
If you come too late, sweet mama will be gone



F C
Dress skirt cut high, then they cut low
G C
Don't think I'm a sport, keep on watchin' me go
F C
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' you horn
G C
If you come too late, sweet mama will be gone



F C
The red rooster said, "Cockle-doodle-do-do"
G C
The Richard's' woman said, "Any dude will do"
F C
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' you horn
G C
If you come too late, sweet mama will be gone



F C
Every Sunday mornin', church people watch me go
G C
My wings sprouted out, and the preacher told me so
F C
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' you horn
G C
If you come too late, sweet mama will be gone



F C
With rosy red garters, pink hose on my feet
G C
Turkey red bloomer, with a rumble seat
F C
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' you horn
G C
If you come too late, sweet mama will be gone
