If I Had Possession Over Judgement Day

Eric Clapton

Me And Mr Johnson

If I Had Possession Over Judgement Day

If I had possession over judgment day,

If I had possession over judgment day,

Lord, the women I'm lovin' would have no right to pray.

And I went to the mountain

far as my eye could see.

Lord, I went to the mountain,

far as my eye could see.

Some other man got my woman and the lonesome blues got me.

And I rolled and I tumbled,

cried the whole night long.

Lord, I rolled and I tumbled,

cried the whole night long.

And I woke up this morning,

my biscuit rollin' on.

Had to fold my arms and slowly walked away.

(I didn't like the way she done.)

Lord, I fold my arms and I slowly walked away.

Well, I said in my mind, "Your trouble gonna come some day."

Well, now run here baby,

get down on bended knee.

Lord, now run here baby,

get down on bended knee.

I wanna tell you all about the way they treated me.
