Lyrics for Terraplane Blues by Robert Johnson

And I feel so lonesome

you hear me when I moan
When I feel so lonesome
You hear me when I moan
Who been drivin' my Terraplane
for you since I been gone
I'd said I flash your lights, mama
your horn won't even blow
spoken: Somebody's been runnin' my batteries
down on this machine
I even flash my lights, mama

this horn won't even blow
Got a short in this connection
hoo-well, babe, it's way down below
I'm on'h'ist your hood, mama

I'm bound to check your oil
I'm on'h'ist your hood, mama-mmm
I'm bound to check your oil
I got a woman that I'm lovin'
way down in Arkansas
Now, you know the coils ain't even buzzin'

little generator won't get the spark
Motor's in a bad condition, you gotta have
these batteries charged
But I'm cryin', please
plea-hease don't do me wrong
Who been drivin' my Terraplane now for
you-hoo since I've been gone
Mr. Highway man

plea-hease don't block the road
Puh hee hee
plea-hease don't block the road
Cause she's re'ist'rin a cold one hundred
and I'm booked and I got to go
Mmm mmm

mmm mmm mmm
You ooo ooo ooo
You hear me weep and moan
Who been drivin' my Terraplane now for
you-hoo since I been gone
I'm on get deep down in this connection

keep tanglin' with your wires
I'm on get deep down in this connection
hoo-well, keep tanglin' with these wires
And when I mash down on your little starter
then your spark plug will give me fire
