Letras de Joliet Blues - Little Walter, Johnny Shines

Joliet Blues (original)

Well they sent me to prison, my baby said I cried
Well they sent me to prison, my baby said I cried
She said baby you know I love you, but you keep me dissatisfied
I say if I didn’t love you babe, I would not have done my crime
I say if I didn’t love you babe, I would not have done my crime
Well now you know I’m awful sorry, for to leave you behind
She was a smoother woman, just as ssweet as she could be
She was a smoother woman, just as ssweet as she could be
Well she waited and told me to lie before she turned her back on me

(traducción)

Bueno, me mandaron a la cárcel, mi bebé dijo que lloré
Bueno, me mandaron a la cárcel, mi bebé dijo que lloré
Ella dijo bebé, sabes que te amo, pero me mantienes insatisfecho
Yo digo que si no te amara nena, no hubiera cometido mi crimen
Yo digo que si no te amara nena, no hubiera cometido mi crimen
Bueno, ahora sabes que lo siento mucho, por dejarte atrás
Era una mujer más suave, tan dulce como podía ser.
Era una mujer más suave, tan dulce como podía ser.
Bueno, ella esperó y me dijo que mintiera antes de darme la espalda
