Last Fair Deal Gone Down Lyrics - The Robert Johnson Songbook - Peter Green

It's the last fair deal goin' down, 

Last fair deal goin' down 

It's the last fair deal goin' down, good Lord, 

On that Gulfport Island Road1 

Please, Ida Belle, don't cry this time 

Ida Belle, don't cry this time 

If you cry about a nickel, you'll die 'bout a dime 

She wouldn't cry, but the money won't2 mine 

I love the way you do, 

I love the way you do 

I love the way you do, good Lord, 

On this Gulfport Island Road 

My captain's so mean on me, 

My captain's so mean on me 

My captain's so mean on me, good Lord, 

On this Gulfport Island Road 

Take camp tain he and see, camp ain't he and see 

At scal ain't be at seen, good Lord, 

On that Gulfport Island Road 

Ah, this last fair deal goin' down, 

It's the last fair deal goin' down 

This' the last fair deal goin' down, good Lord, 

On this Gulfport Island Road1 

I'm workin' my way back home, 

I'm working my way back home 

I'm workin' my way back home, good Lord, 

On this Gulfport Island Road 

And that thing don't keep-a ringin' so soon 

That thing don't keep-a ringin' so soon 

And that thing don't keep-a ringin' so soon, 

Good Lord, on that Gulfed-and-Port Island Road
