T.b. Blues Lyrics - Merle Haggard

T.B. BLUES 

(Jimmie Rodgers) 

« © '31 Peer International, BMI » 

My good gal's trying to make a fool out of me 

Lord my gal's trying to make a fool out of me 

Trying to make me believe I ain't got that old TB 

I've got the TB blues 

When it rained down sorrow it rained all over me 

When it rained down sorrow it rained all over me 

Cause my body rattles like a train on that old SP 

I've got the TB blues 

I've got that old TB I can't eat a bite 

Got that old TB I can't eat a bite 

Got me worried soul I can't even sleep at night 

I've got the TB blues 

I've been fightin' like a lion looks like I'm going to lose 

I've been fightin' like a lion looks like I'm going to lose 

Cause there ain't nobody ever with the TB blues 

I've got the TB blues 

Gee but that graveyard is a lonesome place 

Lord but that graveyard is a lonesome place 

They put you on your back throw that mud down in your face 

I've got the TB blues
