Lightnin Hopkins My Black Name Lyrics

My Black Name Lyrics

I can hear my black name ringing, oh hurryin' down the line

I can hear my
black name ringing, oh hurryin' down the line

Whoa she got another man
now, little girl won't pay me no mind



You know that woman said
that she loved me, but now I believe she was lyin'

Yes she said that she
loved me, but now I believe she was lyin'

Whoa, I don't believe she love
me no more Spider*,

        I believe I'm driving away my turn



Whoa, that woman done quit me, and I'm just about to lose my mind

That
black woman done quit me, and I'm just about to lose my mind

Whoa yeah, my
black name was ringing, oh hurrying down the line



* (Spider
Kilpatrick, the drummer)
