My good gal's trying to make a fool out of me
Yes my gal's trying to make a fool out of me
Trying to make me believe I ain't got that ol' T

When it rained down sorrow it rained all over me Lord Lord
When it rained down sorrow it rained all over me hey
Cause my body ripples like a train on that old SP
[ guitar ]
I 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 been fightin' like a lion looks like I'm goin' to you
I've been fightin' like a lion looks like I'm goin' to you
Cause there ain't nobody ever with the TB blues
[ dobro ]
Gee but that graveyard is a lonesome place hey hey
Lord but that graveyard is a lonesome place
They put you on your back put that mud down in your face
