Lyrics:

I woke up this mornin', I'm lookin' 'round for my shoes
You know 'bout that I got those old walkin' blues
Woke this mornin', I'm lookin' 'round for my shoes
Well, you know 'bout that I got those old walkin' blues

Well, now, some people tell me that the worried blues ain't bad
That the worst old feelin' I 'most ever had
Some people tell me that the worried blues ain't bad
That's the worst old feelin', mama, I 'most ever had

She's got Elgin movement from her head down to her toes
Breaks in on a dollar 'most anywhere she goes
Elgin movements from her head down to her toes
Little girl breaks in on a dollar anywhere she goes

Lord, I feel like blowin' my old lonesome horn
Got up this mornin', my little girl was gone
Lord, I feel like blowin' my lonesome horn
Well, I got up this mornin', all I had was gone
