John Lee Hooker - No Mortgage On My Soul Lyrics

Artist: John Lee Hooker

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Blues

  • Songwriters: Bernard Besman, John Lee Hooker

Got no lien on my body
Got no mortgage on my soul
Got no lien on my body, baby
Got no mortgage on my soul

Yes, you know about that now, baby
You can treat me any kinda way

Yes, I lay down last night, girl
Lookin' at the moon above
I lay down last night
Lookin' at the moon above

I thought about how you treated me, baby
And I was thinkin' to myself, yes, I'm mad

Well, I'm so glad
Lord, for the troubles don't last always
Lord, I'm so glad
This trouble don't last always

But I'll tell ya somethin', baby
You gonna reap just what you sow
