Lyrics Blue Spirit Blues - Bessie Smith
Had
a
dream
last
night
That
I
was
dead
Had
a
dream
last
night
That
I
was
dead
Evil
spirits
All
around
my
bed
The
devil
came
And
grabbed
my
hand
The
devil
came
And
grabbed
my
hand
Took
me
way
down
To
that
red
hot
land
Mean
blues
spirits
Stuck
their
forks
in
me
Mean
blues
spirits
Stuck
their
forks
in
me
Made
me
moan
And
groan
in
misery
Fairies
and
dragons
Spitting
out
blue
flames
Fairies
and
dragons
Spitting
out
blue
flames
Showing
their
teeth
For
they
was
glad
I
came
Demons
with
their
eyelash
Dripping
blood
Demons
with
their
eyelash
Dripping
blood
Dragging
sinners
To
their
brimstone
flood
"This
is
hell,"
I
cried
Cried
with
all
my
might
"This
is
hell,"
I
cried
Cried
with
all
my
might
Oh,
my
soul
I
can't
bear
the
sight
Started
running
'Cause
it
is
my
cup
Started
running
'Cause
it
is
my
cup
Run
so
fast
'Til
someone
woke
me
up
