"Joe Turner" lyrics - MISSISSIPPI JOHN HURT

[Spoken:]
Best blues I ever heard was "Joe Turner"

Oh, they tell me Joe Turner's in this town
Tell me...
Well, they tell me Joe Turner's in this town

He's here to steal my high-teasin' brown
He's here to steal my high-teasin' brown

He's a man I hate, I don't want him hangin' around
He's a man I hate, I don't want him hangin' around
For he's here to steal my high-teasin' brown

Oh, they tell me Joe Turner's in this...

I drove Joe Turner, I drove him from my door
I drove Joe Turner...
I drove Joe Turner, drove him from my door

And I hope to God that he won't come back no more
And I hope to God that he won't come back no more

He's here to steal my high-teasin' brown
Here to steal my high-teasin' brown
