Robert Johnson From Four Till Late Lyrics

From four till late, I was wringing my hands and cryin'
From four till late, I was wringing my hands and cryin'
I believe to my soul that your daddy's Gulfport bound

From Memphis to Norfolk is a thirty-six hours' ride
From Memphis to Norfolk is a thirty-six hours' ride
A man is like a prisoner, and he's never satisfied

A woman is like a dresser, some man always ramblin' through its drawers
A woman is like a dresser, some man always ramblin' through its drawers
It cause so many men, wear an apron over-all

From four until late, she get with a no good bunch and clown
From four until late, she get with a no good bunch and clown
Now she won't do nothin', but tear a good man's reputation down

When I leave this town, I'm gon' bid you fare, farewell
When I leave this town, I'm gon' bid you fare, farewell
And when I return again, you'll have a great long story to tell
