Robert Johnson

Robert Leroy Johnson (May 8, 1911 – August 16, 1938) was an American blues singer and musician. His landmark recordings from 1936–37 display a combination of singing, guitar skills, and songwriting talent that has influenced later generations of musicians. Johnson's shadowy, poorly documented life and death at age 27 have given rise to much legend, including the Faustian myth that he sold his soul at a crossroads to achieve success. As an itinerant performer who played mostly on street corners, in juke joints, and at Saturday night dances, Johnson had little commercial success or public recognition in his lifetime. more »

Every time I'm walkin' down the streets 
Some pretty mama stop breakin' down with me 
Stop breakin' down, yes stop breakin' down 
The stuff I got'll bust your brains out, baby 
Ooh, it'll make you lose your mind 

I can't walk the streets now, can't consulate my mind 
Some no good woman she starts breakin' down 
Stop breakin' down, please stop breakin' down 
The stuff I got'll bust your brains out, baby 
Ooh, it'll make you lose your mind 

Now, you Saturday night womens, you love to ape and clown 
You won't do nothin' but tear a good man reputation down 
Stop breakin' down, please stop breakin' down 
The stuff I got'll bust your brains out, baby 
Ooh, it'll make you lose your mind 

Now, I give my baby, now the 99 degree 
She jumped up and throwed a pistol down on me 
Stop breakin' down, please stop breakin' down 
Stuff I got'll bust your brains out, baby 
Ooh, it'll make you lose your mind 

I can't start walkin' down the streets 
But my pretty mama don't start breakin' down with me 
Stop breakin' down, yeah stop breakin' down 
The stuff I got'll bust your brains out, baby 
Ooh, it'll make you lose your mind
