Blues for Honeyboy
He's freight-hoppin' the Delta
With his guitar in his hand
Outta Shaw he rides the Peavine
At the crossroads met the man
Now look at that little Honeyboy
Just as sweet as he can be
Oh Honey, oh Honeyboy
You flashed that smile at me
He's hangin' with ole Charlie
Get canned heat make some fun
His Bertha said Oh Honeyboy
Don't put that hell up on my hon
Now look at that little Honeyboy
Just as sweet as he can be
Oh Honey, oh Honeyboy
You cast your spell on me
Now he tell of meeting Robert
Off of Johnson and Mail
But the devil called at Three Fork
He left this world in vain
He hopped on up Chicago
Gettin' Jim Crow off his back
He said goodbye to Jimmy
He ain't never comin' back
He's freight-hoppin' the Delta
With his guitar in his hand
Outta Shaw he rides the Peavine
At the crossroads met the man
Now look at that little Honeyboy
Just as sweet as he can be
Oh Honey, oh Honeyboy
You left your love on me
Oh Honey, oh Honeyboy
Don't you say goodbye to me
