Lyrics for Song: Deep Sea Blues (1930)
Lyrics for Album: Complete Recorded Works 1925-32, Vol. 6-(1930-31) [1991]
I'm a deep sea diver with a stroke that can't go wrong.
I'm a deep sea diver with a stroke that can't go wrong.
Don't be afraid to swim with me baby, I carry my life saver along.
Yes my baby knows how to thrill me, she thrills me night and day.
Yes my baby knows how to thrill me, she thrills me night and day.
Sometimes she ride me so fast in her automobile, it takes my breath away.
She baked my first jelly roll, it's the best I've ever found.
She baked my biscuit, she baked them so nice and brown.
And what pleases me so, she bakes with her damper down.
When you get good lovin,' don't never spread the news.
When you get good lovin,' don't never spread the news.
'Cause that's why I'm alone today, with these empty space blues.
I don't mind laying down when I'm sleepy, behind me there's an empty space.
I don't mind laying down when I'm sleepy, behind me there's an empty space.
But I can't get the one I love to fill that empty place.
Boys, I got something good one time that thrilled me through and through.
Boys, I got something good one time that thrilled me through and through.
I told my pal and I found him ravin,' I guess he must have had some too.
