Blue Ghost Blues - Lonnie Johnson

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.

He understands my troubles, mmm, and sympathize with me.

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

That’s my baby …

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.
