Lake Michigan Blues

[intro: 1 scheme]

1.
Well, I went to Lake Michigan
stood on the banks and crying.
Well, I went to Lake Michigan
stood on the banks and crying.
Because I want to see my baby over yonder
but it was, so long and deep and wide

2.
Then I hung my head, baby
and I slowly walked away
And I hung my head, baby
and I slowly walked away
I said: that's allright Lake Michigan
I hope you will go dry someday

3.
Well the moon git glooming, Lord
and the clouds begins to rise
Well the moon git glooming, Lord
and the clouds begins to rise
I wanna crawl Lake Michigan
to see my gal on the other side

4.
And I felt down on my knees baby
pray what shall I do ?
Went down on my knees
and I pray what shall I do ?
Say: I hope someday my, baby
will crawl Lake Michigan too
