Boogan Ways Blues
Talkin' and preachin' to you, baby
Look just like it done me no good
Talkin' and preachin' to you, baby
Look just like it done me no good
'Cause you'se a dirty mistreater
And I'll be the same way if I could
You got ways like the devil, born in a lion's den
You got ways like the devil, born in a lion's den
And I reunite with you, baby, won't you look what a fix I'm in
Play 'em boy, play 'em
Beat the blood out of 'em
Play 'em with your neck out long and do the boodlee bum bum
You gotta get ready
You got to meet them hard luck days
You gotta get ready
You got to meet them hard luck days
And when that slip upon you
You got to change your boogan ways
You can bet your bottom dollar
Daddy, you done put that thing on me
You can bet your bottom dollar
You done put that thing on me
And you can be mean to me, daddy
Just as mean as a man can be
Look just like it done me no good
Talkin' and preachin' to you, baby
Look just like it done me no good
'Cause you'se a dirty mistreater
And I'll be the same way if I could
You got ways like the devil, born in a lion's den
You got ways like the devil, born in a lion's den
And I reunite with you, baby, won't you look what a fix I'm in
Play 'em boy, play 'em
Beat the blood out of 'em
Play 'em with your neck out long and do the boodlee bum bum
You gotta get ready
You got to meet them hard luck days
You gotta get ready
You got to meet them hard luck days
And when that slip upon you
You got to change your boogan ways
You can bet your bottom dollar
Daddy, you done put that thing on me
You can bet your bottom dollar
You done put that thing on me
And you can be mean to me, daddy
Just as mean as a man can be
