Little Clow And Calf Is Gonna Die Blues |
Hey hey-hey-hey-hey, hey hey hey hey hey |
Hey hey-hey-hey-hey, hey hey hey hey… |
And every cow and calf, I believe was born to die |
I’m a-milk my heifer, milk her in a churn |
I’ll milk my heifer, I’ll milk her in a churn |
If you see my |
Rider, tell her it ain’t a darn thing doin' |
I wringed my hands, baby, and I wanted to scream |
I wringed my hands, honey, and I wanted to scream |
And when I woke up I thought it was all a dream |
Hey hey-hey-hey-hey, hey hey hey hey |
Hey hey-hey-hey-hey, hey hey hey hey… |
And every cow and calf, I believe was born to die |
Hey hey-hey, I ain’t gonna be here long |
Hey hey-hey, pretty mama, I ain’t gonna be here long |
That’s the reason why you hear me singin' my old lonesome song |
Hey, hey-hey-hey-hey-hey, hey hey hey hey |
Hey hey-hey-hey-hey, hey hey hey hey hey |
And every cow’s calf, honey, got to be dyin' |
I walked the levee from end to end |
I walked the levee, honey, from end to end |
I was just tryin' to find, my calf, again |
I’m feelin' back to my used-to… |
I feel a notion, back to my used-to-be |
I have a pretty mama, she don’t care for me |
