歌手:Nat King Cole
专辑:《At The Sands》

作曲 : William Handy
This is a song was sung back
In eighteen and ninety two
There was a terrible flood that year
People lost everything they had
Their crops, their live stock
That means their horses, their mules, cows
Goats and everything they had on their farm
And they would start crying
And singing this song
They tell me, Joe Turner been here and gone
Lord, they tell me, Joe Turner been here and gone
They tell me, Joe turner been here and gone
Then they would go out hunting rabbits
'Coons and 'possums
Anything they could catch
Sometimes they would catch something
Then again they didn't
And when they would come home
They would find flour meat and molasses
In their homes and they would know that
Joe Turner had been there and left food for them
And they would start crying
And singing this song
They tell me, Joe Turner been here and gone
Lord, they tell me, that Joe turner been here and gone
They tell me, Joe Turner been here and gone
Then they would start out looking for wood
And stuff to make a fire
And they would look in their yards
And they would find axes, wood
That Joe Turner had brought there for them
Then they would get happy
And start singing and crying this song
They would get happy
And do a little boogie woogie too
