Ma RaineyRough And Tumble Blues Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm going to the Western Union, type the news all down the line
I'm going to the Western Union, type the news all down the line
'Cause Mama's on the warpath this mornin', and don't mind dyin'
[Verse 2]
My man's so good-lookin' and his clothes fit him so cute
My man's so good-lookin' and his clothes fit him so cute
I cut up his box-back and bought him a struttin' suit
[Verse 3]
Then every little devil got on my man's road
Then every little devil got on my man's road
Mama Tree Top Tall and Miss Shorty Toad
[Verse 4]
Tree Top Tall give a stomp as I stepped in the door
Tree Top Tall give a stomp as I stepped in the door
Miss Shorty Toad and my man was shimmyin' down to the floor
[Verse 5]
I got rough and killed three women 'fore police got the news
I got rough and killed three women 'fore police got the news
'Cause Mama's on the warpath with the rough and tumblin' blues
