Come On In My Kitchen (take 2) Lyrics - Singles - Johnson Robert

by Robert Johnson 

Recording of November 23, 1936 

San Antonio, Texas 

Mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm 

Mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm 

You better come on in my kitchen. 

It's goin' to be rainin' outdoors. 

When a woman gets in trouble, everybody throws her down. 

Lookin' for yo' good friend, none can be found. 

You better come on in my kitchen. 

It's goin' to be rainin' outdoors. 

Nnn, the woman i love, took from my best friend. 

Some joker got lucky, stole her back again. 

She better come on in my kitchen. 

Baby, it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors. 

(spoken) Mama, can't you hear that wind howl? 

(spoken) Oh how the wind do howl! 

You better come on in my kitchen 

Mmm baby, it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors 

Nnn, the woman that i love, i crave to see 

She's up the country, won't write to me 

Then, you better come on in my kitchen 

Goin' to be rainin' outdoors 

I went to the mountain, far as my eyes could see 

Some other man got my woman, lonesome blues got me 

But she better come on in my kitchen 

'Cause it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors 

My mama dead, papa well's to be 

Ain't got nobody to love and care for me 

She better come on in my kitchen 

'Cause it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors
