Description

The song could be used as an example of the loose narrative and references to the supernatural and/or folk beliefs often found within the blues genre. Though the song lacks a linear narrative, the collection of somewhat unrelated vignettes which included allusions to Native American culture, women, relationships and etc., were all united with a general focus on mistreatment.
