I Just Want To Make Love To You
(Willie Dixon)

I don't want you to
Be no slave
I don't want you
To wake all day

To be true
I just want to make

Wash my clothes
I don't want you
To keep our home
I don't want your
Money too
I just want to make
Love to you
Love to you
Love to you

They tell about the way you
Switch and walk
Now I can see by the way you
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 to
Because I'm sad and blue
I just want to make
Love to you
love to you
love to you
love to you... (repeat, and fade)

Have you ever been walking, walking down that old lonesome road?
Have you ever been walking, walking down that old lonesome road?
No place to go, whee well brown no place to room and board

Been thinkin' of the way you livin', whee well boy and what your mother said
Things look so lonesome, when you ain't got a shelter over your head
Things look so lonesome, when you ain't got a shelter over your head
When you could have been at home, whee well boy sleepin' in a feather bed

My Dog Can't Bark
(Otis Smothers)

People they're talkin' about you and I
What they sayin' I know is a lie
The people they're talkin' about me and you
I done got tired, I'm gonna talk some too
They talk about my dog, they talk about my cat
Sayin' my dog can't bark and my cat can't scratch
The people they're talkin' about me and you
I done got tired, I'm gonna talk some too
My dog can bark and my cat can scratch
Who started the fire'll have to go out and stop the match
The people they're talkin' about me and you
I done got tired, I'm gonna talk some too
Ain't nobody's business if I bark like a dog
Chasin' rats all up and down the hall
The people they're talkin' about me and you
I done got tired, I'm gonna talk some too

My Pencil Won't Write No More
(McKinley Morganfield)

Well I wonder, I wonder, every place I go

Sometime I wonder why she put me out of doors (I don't like that one)
Yeah sometime I wonder why she put me out of doors
Well you know my letter's gone dead, and my pencil it won't write no more
Anybody ask you, why did I punch you in your nose

I went to buy some ink, but they don't keep it no more in the stores

One More Mile
(McKinley Morganfield)

Oh you know it has been such a hard hard journey, I don't have to cry no more
Keep your light up burnin', so I can know the score
I got one more mile, oh you know I only got one more mile to go
Oh you know my journey was so hard,
but I don't have to worry 'bout you no more
Oh you know they tell me that thousands of schoolkids, every one have a mate
The little girl that I love, she the richest in the state
I got one more mile, oh you know I only got one more mile to go
Oh you know my journey has been so hard,
but I don't have to worry 'bout you no more
- solo -
Oh you know I made a mistake for gamblin', I betted my money wrong
I was bettin' on my baby, but she weren't even at home
I got one more mile, oh you know I got one more mile to go
Oh you know it has been such a long journey,
but I don't have to cry 'bout you no more.

Well I want you to rock me baby, till you make me satisfied
See me comin', run get your rockin' chair
See me comin', run get your rockin' chair
Well you know I ain't no stranger, you know I used to live right here
Want you to roll me, like I roll a waggon wheel
Want you to roll me, like I roll a waggon wheel
You know I want you to roll me over, you know how good that makes me feel
Rock me easy, rock your baby slow
Rock me easy, rock your baby slow
Well you know I want you to rock me so easy, till I don't wanna rock no more
Put your arms around me, like a circle around the sun
Put your arms around me, like a circle around the sun

They Call Me Muddy Waters
(McKinley Morganfield).

They call me Muddy Water, I'm just as restless man as the deep blue sea
Oh yeh they call me Muddy Water, I'm just as restless man as the deep blue sea
You know I've been like that, ever since my baby been gone from me
The night she left me, you know the rain boy was pouring down
Oh yeah the night the little girl left me, you know the rain was pouring down
You know I was the most bluest man, in this whole Chicago town
I got a brand new babe, she just as sweet man as a girl can be
Oh Lord I got a brand new girl, she just as sweet man as a apple on a tree
I wanna tell all you people, how the little child been sending me.

Trouble In Mind
(Richard Jones)

Trouble in mind, and I'm blue
Oh you know I won't be blue always
You know the sun is gonna shine in my back door some day
I'm going down to the river
Oh you know I'm gonna sit right down right down there, on the ground
You know if I get to thinkin' about my baby, I wanna jump overboard and drown
Well I'm going back to Jackson
Oh you know to my old Jackson, Tennessee
Where you know your girls ain't doin' nothin' but makin' a fool of me
Well I'm going down to the railroad
Oh you know I'm gonna lay my head right down on the railroad iron
I'm gonna let the two-nineteen ease my worried mind

Trouble No More

Can't tell how long you're gone, can't tell how long you stay.
It's good country fun, It's your home some day.
Someday Baby, ain't no trouble for me, anymore.
Ah keep on dancin' baby, let me dance one dance.
Well I know when I go, I'm livin' too fast. Someday....
I'll tell him about it, In my neighborhood.
Gonna tell that little woman, that she don't do me no good. Someday...
{Riff stop, riff normal (then lead over verse).}
I know you're leaving, and your comin' back home.
Oh, without my lovin lady, I can't stay long. Someday....
{Riff 2x (lead, then drum breaks).}
Good Bye baby, Ah take my hand.
Don't want no woman no, which ain't have no man.
Someday baby, you ain't gonna trouble poor me, anymore.
