Bukka White - Good Gin Blues

Shake 'Em on Down (78rpm Version)

Get your nightcap mama, and your gown
Maybe 'fore day we're gonna shake 'em on down, eeh
Done stopped hollerin', oh, must I shake 'em on down?
I done stopped hollerin', mama, must I shake 'em on down?

Too much of jelly to be throwed away
Save this jelly for some old rainy day, eeh
Done stopped hollerin', oh, must I shake 'em on down?
I done stopped hollerin', mama, must I shake 'em on down?

Fix my supper and let me go to bed
This white lightnin' done gone to my head, eeh
Must I holler, oh, must I shake 'em on down?
I done stopped hollerin', mama, must I shake 'em on down?

I ain't been in Georgia, but I've been told
Georgia women got the best jellyroll, eeh
Done stopped hollerin', oh, must I shake 'em on down?
I done stopped hollerin', mama, must I shake 'em on down?

See, see, mama what you done done
Made me love you now your man done come, eeh
Done stopped hollerin', oh, must I shake 'em on down?
I done stopped hollerin', mama, must I shake 'em on down?

Baby got somethin', don't know what it is
Make me drunker than an old whiskey still, eeh
Done stopped hollerin', oh, must I shake 'em on down?
I done stopped hollerin', must I shake 'em on down?
