Alonzo "Lonnie" Johnson (February 8, 1899 – June 16, 1970) was an American blues and jazz singer/guitarist and songwriter who pioneered the role of jazz guitar and is recognized as the first to play single-string guitar solos. Johnson was not only one of the few black blues musicians invited to be 'guest featured' on a number of jazz recording sessions, he was also one of the only classic 1920's blues artists to have a revived a high-charting career after WWII. more »

Just a few more hours, few more happy days.
Just a few more hours, and a few more happy days.
Then I'll be headed for, some God forsaken place.

You can't keep, the things in life you really love.
You can't keep, the things you love no matter how you try.
Day by day, deep down inside, you can feel your poor self slowly die.

Just to think I've got to leave you, and I just can't help myself.
Just to think I've got to leave you, and I just can't help myself.
But in my poor heart, there'll never be nobody else.

Baby please don't cry, that's something I just can't stand.
Baby please don't cry, it's something I just can't stand.
In my heart, I know I'm not the only man.

Baby please wait for me, I'll soon be back to you.
Baby please wait for me, I'll soon be back to you
If I can't bring you a Jap, I'll bring you back a head or two.
