Dust My Broom
by Robert Johnson (?) Elmore James (?)
Elmore James version
I’m gettin’ up soon in the mornin’
I believe I’ll dust my broom
I’m gettin’ up soon in the mornin’
I believe I’ll dust my broom
I quit the best girl I’m lovin’
now my friends can get in my room
I’m gonna write a letter
telephone every town I know
I’m gonna write a letter
telephone every town I know
If I don’t find her in Mississippi
she be in East Monroe I know
And I don’t want no woman
wants every downtown man she meets
No I don’t want no woman
wants every downtown man she meets
Man she’s a no good doney
they shouldn’t allow her on the street yeah
I believe I believe my time ain’t long
I believe I believe my time ain’t long
I ain’t gonna leave my baby
and break up my happy home
