Bukka White - Bukka White Blues

Shake 'Em on Down (Version 2)

Bukka

Yes, you're a nice girl, mama
And a little girl
Night before day
We gonna
Shake 'em on down

Need some time holler, now
Oh, must I shake 'em on down
I done stop hollerin', now
Must I shake 'em on down

Too much is debted to me
Through the week
Save these chili peppers
Some ol' rainy day, here

Best I'm hollerin', now
Oh, must I shake 'em on down
I done stop hollerin', now
Must I shake 'em on down

Fix my supper
Let me go to bed
This white lightnin' done gone
To my head

Oh, must I holler now
Oh, must I shake 'em on down

I done stop hollerin', now
Must I shake 'em on down

I ain't been in Georgia, babe
I been told
Georgia women got the best
jelly roll

These nights time holler, now
Oh, must I shake 'em on down
I done stop hollerin', mama
Must I shake 'em on down

See See mama, I heard
You, done-done
Made me love you, now your
Man done come

Best I'm hollerin', now
Oh, must I shake 'em on down
I done shout hollerin', mama
Must I shake 'em on down

Pretty girl's got
They don't know
What it is
Make me drunk at that old
Whiskey still

It's best I'm hollerin', now
Oh, must I shake 'em on down
I done stop hollerin'
Must I shake 'em on down
