(Spoken:) Lord have mercy, got to tell it, tell it just like it is, ev?y word. Yeah! I was living in St. Louis In the year of nineteen fifty five Mama didn? have no great mansion, Just a little old country dive. could see Bessie's face so strong

Oh, See her soon
Goin' down the road t' see Bessie Smith
When I get there I wonder what she'll do
When she sees me will she know what I've been through?

When I get there will our love still feel so true?
Yet all I have, I'll be a-bringin' it to you
Oh Bessie, sing them old-time blues
