Lyrics Little School Girl - Lighnin' Hopkins

Little School Girl

Little school girl
Let me tote your books to school today
Please, little school girl
Let me tote your books to school today
She said, «I says you’s a bad boy
Mama said please keep you away»
(spoken: That’s what she said about Lightnin')
Mama want to know what you’re doin'
Yes, after you get out of her sight
She said «If I let you tote my books
Still I know, Sam, that ain’t right»
When I get back home with my mother and dad
That’s where I might have a fight
I told the school teacher
Little school girl carryin' too heavy a load
Yes, I told that school teacher
Little girl was carryin' too heavy a load
She say, «You better get your big, bare feets
Lightnin', make it down the road»
(spoken: That little school girl was all right in her place
But she got me, so I walked away and I say…)
Good mornin', little school girl
How have you been today?
Good mornin' little school girl
How have you been today?
I say I’ll tote your books, I’ll tote your books
Darlin', cause you are goin' my way
