Lyric Blue Ghost Blues (1938)

Mmmmmm, something cold is creepin around.
Mmmmmm, something cold is creepin around.
Blue Ghost is got me, I feel myself sinkin down.

Black cat and a owl, come to keep my company.
Black cat and a owl, comes to keep my company.
He understands my troubles, mmm, and sympathize with me.

I been in this haunted house, for three long years today.
I been in this haunted house, for three long years today.
Blue Ghost is got my shack surrounded, oh Lord, and I can t get away.

I feel cold arms around me, and ice lips upon my cheeks.
I feel cold arms around me, ice lips upon my cheeks.
My lover is dead, how plainly plain I can hear her speak.

Oh Lonnie, oh Lonnie …oh Lonnie, sweet Lonnie [spoken words - falsetto voice]
That s my baby … [spoken words – Lonnie Johnson]

My windows begin rattlin , my doorknob is turnin round an round.
My windows is rattlin , doorknob is turnin round an round.
My lover s ghost is got me, and I know my time won t be long.
