Robert Johnson

Robert Leroy Johnson (May 8, 1911 – August 16, 1938) was an American blues singer and musician. His landmark recordings from 1936–37 display a combination of singing, guitar skills, and songwriting talent that has influenced later generations of musicians. Johnson's shadowy, poorly documented life and death at age 27 have given rise to much legend, including the Faustian myth that he sold his soul at a crossroads to achieve success. As an itinerant performer who played mostly on street corners, in juke joints, and at Saturday night dances, Johnson had little commercial success or public recognition in his lifetime. more »

I got ramblin'
I got ramblin' on my mind
I got ramblin'
I got ramblin' all on my mind
Hate to leave my baby
But you treats me so unkind
I got mean things
I got mean things on my mind
Little girl, little girl
I got mean things all on my mind
Hate to leave you here, baby
But you treat me so unkind
Runnin' down to the station
Catch that first mail train I see, I hear her comin' now.
Running down to the station
Catch that old first mail train I see
I've got the blues about Miss So-and-So
And the child got the blues about me
And I'm leavin' this mornin'
With my arms folded up and cryin'
And I'm leavin' this morning'
With my arms folded up and cryin'
I hate to leave my baby
But she treat me so unkind
I got mean things
I got mean things on my mind
I got mean things
I got mean things on my mind
I got to leave my baby
For she treats me so unkind
