Little Cow, Little Calf Blues |
Hi-hi |
Hi-hi-hi-i |
Hi-hi-hi-i |
Hi-hi-hi-hi-i |
Got to lay down and die |
If you should see my heifer |
Will you please, please, please, please |
Drive her home? |
If you see my heifer |
Will you please, please, please |
Drive her home? |
'Cause I’ve had no milk an butter |
Since my calf been born |
Lord, I wring me hand |
An I declare, I just wanted to scream |
I wring my hand |
An I 'clare, I wanted to scream |
But when I woke up I was glad |
That it was all a dream |
I am stealin', I am stealin' |
I’m stealin', please don’t you tell on me |
I am stealin', I am stealin' |
An please don’t you tell on me |
I’m stealin' from my reg’lar |
Back to my old used to be Lord, I walked the levee |
I done walked it from end to end |
You all, walked the levee |
And I walked it from end to — |
An I was just tryin' to find |
My little cow, again |
Lord, I hollered, 'Ho-ho-hey' |
Hi-hi-hi-hi-hi |
Hollered, hi-hi-hi |
Hi-hi-hi, hi-hi |
You know ev’ry little cow and calf |
They got to lay down an die. |
(piano to end) |
