Bessie Smith (Outtake) (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

(الألبوم: Cahoots - 1971)

Bessie was more than just a friend of mine
We shared the good times
With the bad
Now many a year has passed me by
I still recall
The best thing I ever had

Now I'm going down the road to see Bessie
Oh, see her soon
I'm just going down the road to see Bessie Smith
When I get there I'm wondering what she'll do

All the crazy things I had to try
Well I tried them all
And then some
But if you're lucky
One day you find out
Where it is
You're really coming from

Now I'm going down the road to see Bessie
Oh, see her soon
I'm just going down the road to see Bessie Smith
When I get there I'm wondering what she'll do

Now in my day I've made some foolish moves
But back then, I didn't worry 'bout a thing
Now and again
I still wonder to myself
Was it her sweet love
Or the way that she could sing

Now I'm going down the road to see Bessie
Oh, see her soon
I'm just going down the road to see Bessie Smith
When I get there I'm wondering what she'll do
