Crawling Kingsnake

(Ready? Yeah)

Well I'm a crawling king snake, baby
Crawl up on your door
Crawl up to your window, baby
Crawl up on your floor
I do anything I want to, baby
Crawl up on your door
Crawling king snake
And I'm going

Yeah, I'ma crawl up to your window, baby
Crawl up to your door
See anything I want to, baby
Crawl up on your door
Feel me coming in
Crawl up on your door, yeah
Crawling king snake
And I wanna

Well my mamma caught me crawlin'
With those girls I know
I wasn't very big then
And I wanna crawl some more
Do you love me, ma?
Crawl up to your door
Only thing you wanted, baby
Crawl up to your floor
Crawling king snake
And I wanna

Crawling king snake, baby
Crawl up on your door
Do anything I want to
Crawl up on your floor
Catch me crawling in
Do you want some more?
Know I want you
Crawl up on your door
Crawling king snake

Louise

I said Louise, the sweetest girl
I said Louise, the sweetest
She called me to warm Chicago
Down the gulf of Mexico

Now look here, Louise
You know you got to, to be all kind
Can't mind my muddy water, keep it hid
Oh Louise, the sweet
She called me to warm Chicago
Down the gulf

Now look here, Louise
You know I don't be your king
Know you can't mind it, keep it hid
Oh Louise, the sweet
She called me to warm Chicago
Now I'm goin'

Going Down South

I'm going down south, I'm going down south
Going down south, I'm going down south
Chilly wind don't blow

I'm going with you babe, I'm going with you babe
Going with you babe, I'm going with you babe
Don't care where you go

Some other man, some other man
Some other man, some other man
He's always hanging around

I'd rather be dead, rather be dead
Rather be dead, I'd rather be dead
Six feet in the ground

I'm going down south, going down south
Going down south, I'm going down south
Chilly wind don't blow

Coal Black Mattie

Poor black Mattie ain't got change in clothes
Fool got drunk, close that door
Coal black Mattie ain't got change in clothes

Goin' to Memphis, see that world fair
Reason I'm going, 'cause my baby's there
Goin' to Memphis, see that world fair

Need no heater fireplace by my bed
Woman, I got cherry red
Need no heater fireplace by my bed

Poor black Mattie ain't got change in clothes
Fool got drunk, close that door
Coal black Mattie ain't got change in clothes

Sad Days Lonely Nights

My mama told me
When I was a child
She said, "Son, gonna have hard days"
My daddy told me too
He said "Son, gonna have sad days, lonely nights"
Sittin' alone, head hung down
Tears runnin' down
Sad days, lonely nights
Done overtaken me

Sometimes I sit alone
I wonder 'bout the things
My mama and daddy told me
Sad days, lonely nights
Done overtaken me

Sometimes I sit alone
And I wonder 'bout the thing
My mama and daddy told me
Sad days, lonely nights
Done overtaken me

Walk with Me

Babe, talk with me
And walk with me, babe
We get together
Make everything right
Let's make it up, babe

Love babe
I make it good to you
You make it good to me
We get together
Make everything alright

Babe, please don't leave me
If you leave me, babe
My, my, my poor heart
Will be in sorrow

Babe, please don't leave
If you leave me, babe
My, my, my poor heart
Will be in sorrow

Gon' get me a step ladder, baby
Climb up on your top, top limb

Come On and Go with Me

Come on, come on, baby
Come on and go with me
I need love, I need love so bad
Lowdown cryin' shame

Come on, come on, baby
Come on and go with me
I need loving, I need love so bad
It's a lowdown cryin' shame

Come on, come on, babe
Come on and go with me

I'll be good to you baby
You be good to me
We get together, oh yes, we will

Come on, come on baby
Come on and go with me

I ain't lonesome
I ain't lonesome in my heart
Ain't got nobody to call my own

Come on, come on, baby
Come on and go with me
