Search Warrant Blues
Rev. Gary Davis, Blind Blake
[Verse 1]
Mr police captain listen to my plea
Mr police captain listen to my plea
I want to make my baby come back home to me
[Verse 2]
Give me a search warrant and a great big hound
Give me a search warrant and a great big hound
I'm going to find my baby if I have to track her down
[Verse 3]
I know where she's at but her man won't let me in
I know where she's at but her man won't let me in
All I want is a search warrant and a bottle of gin
[Verse 4]
I'm going to get running drunk and go into that place
I'm going to get running drunk and go into that place
And that backbiting man better not show his face
[Verse 5]
I love my baby but she treat me so unkind
I love my baby but she treat me so unkind
If she thinks she can quit me she really have lost her mind
