If You Lose Your Money

This one is a Sonny Terry and Brownie McGee song, and it’s a wonderful song to my mind. If you’re not familiar with Sonny Terry and Brownie McGee, then check out this song. If you are familiar with the Sonny and Brownie, well then check it out anyway. It’s a very straight blues with a wonderful lyric.

If you lose your money please don’t you lose your mind/If you lose your money please don’t you lose your mind/If you lose your woman please don’t fool with mine.

First woman that I loved last one I ever will

First woman that I loved

last one I ever will

Love is somethin that can get somebody killed.

So if you lose your money please don’t you lose your mind/If you lose your money please don’t lose your mind/But if you lose your woman, please don’t fool with mine

Come rain, come sunshine from the sky above

Come rain come sunshine from the sky above

If I’m a fool I’m a fool about the one I love
