Lyrics In the House Blues - Bessie Smith
And
in
the
house
with
everything
on
my
mind
And
in
the
house
with
everything
on
my
mind
Lookin'
at
the
clock
and
can't
even
tell
the
time
Walkin'
to
my
window,
an'
lookin'
out
of
my
door
Walkin'
to
my
window,
an'
lookin'
out
of
my
door
Wishin'
that
my
man
would
come
home
once
more
Can't
eat,
can't
sleep,
so
weak
I
can't
walk
my
floor
Can't
eat,
can't
sleep,
so
weak
I
can't
walk
my
floor
Feel
like
hollerin'
murder,
let
the
Police
Squad
get
me
once
more
They
woke
me
up
before
day
with
trouble
on
my
mind
They
woke
me
up
before
day
with
trouble
on
my
mind
Wringin'
my
hands
and
screamin',
walkin'
the
floor
hollerin'
and
cryin'
Catch
'em,
don't
let
them
blues
in
here
Catch
'em,
don't
let
them
blues
in
here
They
shakes
me
in
my
bed,
can't
set
down
in
my
chair
Oh,
the
blues
has
got
me
on
the
go
Oh,
they've
got
me
on
the
go
They
runs
around
my
house,
in
and
out
of
my
front
door
