Death Of Blind Boy Fuller Lyrics

He's gone, Blind Boy Fuller's gone away

He's gone, Blind Boy Fuller's gone
away

Well he heard a voice calling, and he knew he could not stay



Well he called me to his bedside one morning, and the clock was
strikin' four

Called me to his bedside one morning, and the clock was
strikin' four

Brownie take my guitar and carry my business on, I won't
stay here no more



Blind Boy had a million friends, north, east,
south and west

Blind Boy had a million friends, north, east, south and
west

Well you know it's hard to tell, which place he was loved the
best



Well all you women of Blind Boy's, how do you want your
lovin' done?

All of you women of Blind Boy's, how do you want your lovin'
done?

I'll do my best, I'll do my best, to carry Blind Boy's business
on



Goodbye Blind Boy!

[From the
unissued take:]



He's gone, Blind Boy Fuller's gone away

He's
gone, Blind Boy Fuller's gone away

Well he heard a voice calling, and he
knew he could not stay



Well he called me to his bedside, and the
clock was strikin' four

Yeah he called me to his bedside, and the clock
was strikin' four

Brownie take my guitar, carry my business on, Blind Boy
won't be here no more



Blind Boy had a million friends, east, north,
south and west

Blind Boy had a million friends, east, north, south and
west

Well you know that it's hard to tell, which place he was loved the
best



(spoken:)

Moan...

Blind Boy was my best
friend,

Now I declare he's gone



Well I heard he had a
million women friends, how I wonder how they want their lovin' done

Blind
Boy had a million women friends, wonder how they want their lovin' done

Well
