Blues in a Bottle by Prince Albert Hunt's Texas Ramblers
Performed by
Prince Albert Hunt’s Texas RamblersBlues in a Bottle Lyrics
Blues in a bottle, blues in a bottle
Stopper in my hand, pretty mama
Blues in a bottle, stopper in my hand
I'm goin' back to Fort Worth, find me another man
Dig your taters, go dig your taters
It's tater diggin' time, pretty mama
Go dig your taters, it's tater diggin' time
Old man Jack Frost done and killed your vine
Asked my baby, asked my baby
Could she stand to see me cry, pretty mama
Asked my baby, could she stand to see me cry
Then, whoa, black daddy, I can stand to see you die
Rooster chews tobacco, rooster chews tobacco
The hen uses snuff, pretty mama
The rooster chews tobacco and the hen uses snuff
The little chickens don't use nothin' but they strut their stuff
Went to Chattanoodie, went to Chattanoodie
See my pony run, pretty mama
Went to Chattanoodie, see my pony run
If I win some money, gonna give my baby some
