Mississippi Sheiks - Honey Babe Let The Deal Go Down: The Best Of Mississippi Sheiks

Driving That Thing

Old Uncle Bill, he was a spikin' man
Laid down and died with his hammer in his hand
From drivin' that thing
Oh, drivin' that thing
All the lawyers in town talkin' 'bout him drivin' that thing

Old Uncle Bill, he lived uptown
Drivin' that thing has done carried him down
Oh, drivin' that thing
Oh, drivin' that thing
Even down to the judges talkin' 'bout him drivin' that thing

Uncle Bill called the doctor, says: "Come here quick
I done got my hammer out of fix
I can't drive that thing
I can't drive that thing"
All the lawyers uptown talkin' 'bout him drivin' that thing

Uncle Bill got the doctor, the doctor said:
"Drivin' that thing is going to kill you dead"
Oh, drivin' that thing
Oh, drivin' that thing
Even down to the judges talkin' 'bout him drivin' that thing

Uncle Bill was raggedy; he stayed out of sight
Ev'ry time you meet him he would want to fight
About drivin' that thing
About drivin' that thing
All the lawyers uptown is talkin' 'bout him drivin' that thing

Stayed out last night, the night before
Come home this mornin' knockin' on his door
He's just been drivin' that thing
He's just been drivin' that thing
Even down to the judges talkin' 'bout him drivin' that thing
