Lyrics Writing Paper Blues - Blind Willie McTell
I
wrote
you
a
letter,
mama
Put
it
in
your
front
yard
I
wrote
you
a
letter
Put
it
in
your
front
yard
I
would
love
to
come
and
see
you
But
your
good
man's
got
me
barred
You
wrote
me
a
letter
To
come
back
the
Newport
noon
You
wrote
me
a
letter,
mama
Come
back
the
Newport
noon
To
leave
the
town
And
don't
spread
the
news
I
wrote
you
a
letter,
mama
Sent
you
a
telegram
I
wrote
you
a
letter,
mama
Sent
you
a
telegram
Not
to
meet
me
in
Memphis
But
meet
me
in
Birmingham
Um,
hear
me
weep
and
moan
Um,
hear
me
weep
and
moan
Don't
you
hear
my
pleading?
Hear
me
grieve
and
groan
If
I
could
get
me
one
more
drink
of
booze
If
I
could
get
me
one
more
drink
of
booze
I
guess
it
would
ease
these
ol'
writin'
paper
blues
I
caught
a
freight
train
special
My
mama
caught
a
pass'ger
behind
Caught
a
freight
train
special
My
mama
caught
a
pass'ger
behind
Said
you
can't
quit
me
papa
There
ain't
no
need
in
tryin'
