Boweavil Blues (04-07-24) |
Hey boweavil, don’t sing them blues no more |
Hey boweavil, don’t sing them blues no more |
Boweavil’s here, boweavil’s everywhere you go |
I’m a lone boweavil, been out a great long time |
I’m a lone boweavil, been out a great long time |
For to sing this song, to ease boweavil’s troublin' mind |
I don’t want no sugar put into my tea |
I don’t want no sugar put into my tea |
The mens are so evil, I’m scared they might poison me |
I went downtown |
I bought myself a hat |
I brought it back home |
I laid it on the shelf |
I looked in my bedroom |
Tired sleepin' by myself |
I’m tired sleepin' by myself |
