Hollers and Blues
Lights in the quarters burnin' mighty dim, partner,
Lights in the quarters burnin' mighty dim,
Must be killin' poor Shanty Joe.
Please don't kill poor Shanty, don't kill poor Shanty Joe.
Captain, can't you see this four o'clock risin's 'bout to kill poor me?
Captain, can't you see this four o'clock trouble 'bout to kill poor me?
EADIE
g. No. 190. Lightning- and Dave Tippen, Darrington State Farm, Texas, 1934.
I Go way, Eadie, you dirty dog, Wo, Eadie, go way 3 Go way, Eadie, you dirty dog, Wo, Eadie, go way.
[363]
