Nashville Blues Lyrics by Doc Watson
I’ve got the blues, those Nashville blues
I’ve got the blues, those Nashville blues

I’ve got the blues, those Nashville blues
I’ve got the blues, those Nashville blues
When I first came to this country in 1849
I saw many fair lovers but I did not see mine
My little darling, oh, how I love you
How I love you none can tell
A-rovin’ on a winter’s night
And a-drinkin’ good old wine,
Blue railroad train
I’m goin’ down the railroad track
When I was a boy, I had to know
What I would find just over the hill
Early one morning
At the St. James Hospital
Along about eighteen twenty-five
I left Tennessee very much alive
