My Baby She Left Me

Messin' With the Kid
(by Mel Landon, performed by Junior Wells and Buddy Guy)

What's this a-here goin all around town
The people they say they're gonna put the kid down
Oh no. Oh look at what you did
You can call it what you want to, I call it messin with the kid

You know the kid's no child, and I don't play
I says what I mean and I mean what I say
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. Oh look at what you did
You can call it what you want to, I call it messin with the kid

[guitar solo]

You know the kid's no child, and I don't play
I says what I mean and I mean what I say
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. Oh look at what you did
You can call it what you want to, I call it messin with the kid

My Baby She Left Me (She Left Me a Mule to Ride)
(by Sonny Boy Williamson, performed by Junior Wells and Buddy Guy)

When my baby she left me. She left me with a mule to ride
When my baby she left me. She left me with a mule to ride
When her train left the station that old mule laid down and died

Man I sent this woman a brand new twenty dollar bill
Lord I sent that woman a brand new twenty dollar bill
Now if that don't bring her back, I'm sure this old shotgun will

Lake Michigan ain't no river, Chicago ain't no hill town
Lake Michigan ain't no river, Chicago ain't no hill town
If I feel like this tomorrow I'm gonna clear out be back down Memphis bound

[harp solo x2]

I'll be standing down on the landing when the big boat pull off and roll
I'll be standing on the landing when the big boat pull off and roll
I'll be hopin I'll be prayin I don't see your face no more

When my baby she left me. She left me with a mule to ride
When my baby she left me. She left me with a mule to ride
When her train left the station that old mule laid down and died

Lord I sent this woman a brand new twenty dollar bill
Man I sent my baby a brand new twenty dollar bill
Now if that don't bring her back, I'm sure my shotgun will
