Washington D.C. Hospital Center Blues
Skip James
Washington D.C. Hospital Center Blues
In Washington D.C.
In the hospital, now
In Washington D.C.
Ain't got nobody
To see about me
Because he's a good man
We know he's a po' man
We can understand
All the doctors
And nurses, too
They came and they asked me
'Who in the world are you?'
Yes, I was a good man
But I'm's a po' man
You understand
The doctors and nurses
They shakin' their head
Said, 'Take this po' man
And put him to bed'
But I'm's a good man
But I'm's a po' man
You can understand
All the doctors
And nurses, too
They came and they asked me
'Who in the world are you?'
I says, I'm the good man
But I'm's a po' man
You can understand
The doctors and nurses
They shakin' their head
Said, 'Take this po' man
And put him to bed'
Because he's a good man
We know he's a po' man
We can understand
I didn't go hungry
I had a-plenty to eat
I had good treatment
And a place to sleep
Because I was a good man
They knew I was a po' man
They could understand
I met a little damsel
She promised me
That she would love me
And always be sweet
She found out I was a po' man
And I thought I was a good man
She couldn't understand, no
Now, when she left me
She got in the do'
She waved me, good-bye
I haven't seen her no mo'
She found out I was a good man
She knew I was a po' man
She couldn't understand
The doctors and nurses
They shakin' my hand
Say, 'You can go home now, Skip
You's a sound, well man'
Because you's a good man
You's a po' man
We can understand
