Boll Weevil Blues lyrics
Hey, boll weevil,
Don’t sing them blues no more,
Hey, hey, boll weevil,
Don’t sing them blues no more,
Boll weevils here, boll weevils everywhere you go
I’m a lone boll weevil, been out a good long time,
I’m a lone boll weevil, been out a good long time,
I’m gonna sing this tune
to ease a boll weevil’s lonesome mind.
I don’t want no man to put no sugar in my tea,
I don’t want no man to put no sugar in my tea,
Some of them are so evil,
I'm ‘fraid they might poison me.
I went downtown and bought me a hat,
I brought it back home,
I laid it on the shelf, looked at my bed,
I’m gettin’ tired of sleeping by myself.
- Artist:Ma Rainey
