paroles de chanson Red Cross Store - Sonny Terry

Sonny Boy got used to the hardships
Way back in the year of twenty nine
Who was in port,
Took us all the Camel cigarette and put us on golden grain

I will tell you about the red cross,
The hardship that I had to go through with

We and my girl talk last night, talk about an hour
Run over to the red cross store for some red cross flour
I said no, baby I don't wanna go
Though I'd rob a bank for you woman
But I won't go to that red cross store

That ____ red cross people, sure to treat you mean
One can tomato, two's a cans of beans
I said no, baby I don't wanna go
Though I'd rob a bank or stop a train
But I won't go to that red cross store

Now you can go down any moment
They ask you how you feel
Give you back tomatoes, and and a pack of ____ meal
I said no, baby I don't wanna go
I'll do anything in the world for you
But I won't go that red cross store

Now you know that man who was the president, who was named
Took me off of Camel cigarettes and put me on golden grain
I said no, I don't wanna go
Well I say I quit smoking, so I won't go to the red cross street

That ain't no me, I ain't working so hard Sonny
I got a girl in the white folk shop
She told me no, Brownie you don't have to go, wow
I'll bring your meal from the kitchen
Stay away from that red cross store

She said no baby

Now who was he once told us, he's gonna make things all right
Give us one can of chipped beef, two or three cans of tripe
I said no no, baby no I don't wanna go
Though I'll do anything for you baby
But I won't go the red cross store

Sonny I have found me another girl
That's gonna get us all a job
Take care of me while these times are doggone hard

I said yes yes, I don't wanna go
When you get your money, get your cheque cashed
I'll stay away from that red cross store
