Lyrics Ground Hog Blues - John Lee "Sonny Boy" Williamson

Ground Hog Blues

Well, I’m that walkin' groundhog, mom and I walks around in my den
Now I’m that walkin' groundhog, mom and I walks around in my den
Now if I come out and see my shadow, John, I believe I’ll go back in
Man, I want some feedin', mama, so I can hear a high sound
If you don’t feed me, babe I believe I’ll go back in the ground
Because I’m that walkin' groundhog, mom and I walks around in my den
Now if I come out and see my shadow you say you don’t love me
I believe I’ll go back in
Now I wanna hear some swingin' music, I wanna hear a Fats Waller song
Now if I start to jitterbuggin', I’m forgettin' my hole down in the ground
Because I’m that walkin' groundhog, man and I walks around in my den
Now if I come out and see my shadow my woman don’t love me
I believe I’ll go back in
Yes John, you know what I mean
Oh, you know I’m a walkin' wild
Now when I need some pettin' baby, baby you know what I mean
Now if you don’t pet me, baby, I believe I’ll go back down in New Orleans
Because I’m that walkin' groundhog, night I walks around in my den
Now if I come out and see my shadow my woman don’t love me
Yeah, and I believe I’ll go back in
