Adam Carroll - Caine River Blues
E
Down in Louisiana, got too much to lose
A
Down in Louisiana, got too much to lose
B7
I got twenty years of living
E
With these old Caine River Blues

Work at tenant farming, Jacob is my name

I work at tenant farming, Jacob is my name

I spent half my life getting blisters

From cutting sugar cane

Got me a son named Jimmy, got a wife named Marie

Said, I got me a son named Jimmy, got a wife named Marie

I'm getting old working in the sun all day

But she done alright by me

She said Jimmy needs some schooling, so he doesn't end up like you

Said, Jimmy needs some schooling, so he doesn't end up like you

But buying his books on the money I make

It's a damn hard thing to do

Mr. Jackson wants to see me, so he called me in at four

Mr. Jackson wants to see me, but he called me in at four

Said, I got me combine, Jacob

I don't need you anymore
INSTRUMENTAL:

Well, I got a brother named Virgil, he sells crack cocaine

I got me a brother named Virgil, he sells crack cocaine

He got rich a long time ago
