Lyrics Hustlers Blues - Scrapper Blackwell , Leroy Carr

[I got a talk a little bit - tell these
People a thing or two. I really mean that too]

Whiskey is my habit good women is all I crave
Whiskey is my habit good women is all I crave
And I don't believe in two things will carry me to my grave

I'm going to Louisiana where I can drink and have my fun
I'm going to Louisiana where I can drink and have my fun
I can't stay here much longer 'cause my time has just about come

When you see me leaving baby don't you wear no black
When you see me leaving baby don't you wear no black
You'll see your loving daddy walking down some lonesome railroad track

When I was a hustler - I'm in my prime
When I was a hustler - I'm in my prime
I would drink good whiskey and gamble all the time
