Well, there is one kind favor I ask of you
One kind favor I ask of you
One kind favor I ask of you
See that my grave is kept clean
Well there is two white horses in a line
There's two white horses in a line
two white horses in a line
Gonna take me to my burying ground
Well my heart stopped beating and my hands cold
Well my heart stopped beating and my hands cold
my heart stopped beating and my hands cold
Wont be long till I’m in the shady grove
Did you ever heard the coffin sound
Did you ever heard the coffin sound
Did you ever heard the coffin sound
Then you know by that the poor boy is in the ground
dig my grave with a silver spade
dig my grave with a silver spade
Dig my grave with a silver spade
lay me down with this golden chain
I feel so good.
one kind favor I ask of you
One kind favor I ask of you
One kind favor One kind favor
see that my grave is kept clean

Who Do You Love

I walk 47 miles of barbed wire,
I use a cobra-snake for a necktie,
I got a brand new house on the roadside,
Made from rattlesnake hide,
I got a brand new chimney up on top,
Made out of human skull,
Now come on, take a lil walk with me, honey ,
And tell me, who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do, Who do you love?
Mojo come to my house, a black cat bone
Take my baby away from home
Mojo, mojo, where you been
Up your house and gone again
Tombstone hand and a graveyard mind,
Just 22 and I don't mind dying.
I ride around town, use a rattlesnake whip,
Take it easy arlene, don't give me no lip,
Who do you love?
Who do, Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
The night was dark, but the sky was blue,
Down the alley, ah ice-wagon flew,
Hit a bump, and somebody screamed,
You should have heard just what I seen.
Who do you love?
Who do, Who do you love?

Mississippi River, so big and wide
My Brown haired woman on the other side
Now she's gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world
You don’t like my peaches don’t shake my tree
Get outta my orchard, let my peaches be
Now she's gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world
Don't come here running, holding out your hand
Got me another woman, like you got your man
Now she's gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world
It was in the spring, one sunny day
My baby left me, she went away
Now she's gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world
There have been days, I didn’t know my name
Why should I worry, ‘cause it's all in vain
Mississippi River, so big and wide
My Brown haired woman on the other side
Now she's gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world
Don't come here running, holding out your hand
Got me another woman, and you got your man
Now she's gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world
You don’t like my peaches don’t shake my tree
Get outta my orchard, let my peaches be
Now she's gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world

Well, I'm a king bee, baby,
buzzin' around your hive
Well, I'm a king bee, baby,
buzzin' around your hive
Well, I can make honey, baby,

I'm young and able to buzz all night long
Said I'm young and able to buzz all night long
Well, when you hear me buzzin', baby
You know some stingin' is going on
Well I’m a king
Well I’m a king, won’t you be my queen
Well, I'm a king bee, won’t you be my queen
Well, I'm a king, baby, won’t you be my queen?
Together, we make honey better than anyone has ever seen
Pull your car up in my driveway, cut your bright lights way down low
Drive your car up in my driveway, cut your bright lights way down low
I’m gonna wind up your transmission till your motor won't run no more
Say, I’m wind up your transmission till your motor won’t go
Well, I'm a king bee, baby
I'm a king, I'm a king.
Won't you be my queen?

Minglewood Blues

I was born in the desert
Raised in the lion's den
I was born in the desert
Raised in the lion's den
my number one occupation
stealing women from their men
When you come to Memphis
Please stop by Minglewood
When you come to Memphis
stop by Minglewood
But those Memphis women
Don’t mean no man no good
I was born in the desert
Raised in the lion's den
If you can't believe in me
make it hard to believe in you
Cause we all need each other
If you can't believe in me
make it hard to believe in you
it's true
If you can’t believe in me
make it hard to believe in you
Cause we all need each other
If you can’t believe in me
make it hard to believe in you
it’s true
If you can’t believe in me
make it hard to believe in you
Cause we all need each other
If you can’t believe in me
make it hard to believe in you
Yes it's true
I was born in the desert
Raised in the lion's den
I was born in the desert
Raised in the lion's den
my number one occupation
stealing women from their men

I don't want you to be no slave
I don't want you to work all day
I don't want you to be true
I just want to make love to you
Love to you

I don't want your money too
I just want to make love to you

Love to you
Well I tell about the way you
Switch and walk
Now I can see by your
Baby talk
Now I can know by the way you
Treat your man
That I could love you baby until the
Cryin' shame
I don't want you to cook my bread
I don't want you to make my bed
I don't want you when I'm sad and blue
I just want to make love to you
I don't want you to be no slave
I don't want you to work all day
I don't want you to be true
I just want to make love to you
Love to you
Love to you
Love to you
Love to you
Love to you
I just want to make love to you
Love to you
Love to you

I have a little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for the day
I have a little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for the day
Keep everything in the barnyard
Upset in every way
The dogs begin to bark and the
Hound begin to howl
Oh, the dogs begin to bark and the
Hound begin to howl
And the hounds began to howl
Oh, watch out, strange-kin people 'cause the
Little red rooster is on the prowl
Said theres been no peace in the barnyard
Since that rooster been gone
If you see my red rooster
Won't you please drive him home
If you see my red rooster
Won't you please drive him home
There's been no peace in the barnyard
There's been no peace in the barnyard
Come on home
If you see my red rooster
Won't you please drive him home
If you see my little red rooster
Won't you please drive him home
