Hunkie Tunkie Blues Lyrics


Baby I'm goin' uptown tell the chief police
My woman quit me can't see no peace
She keep me worried - bothered all the time
'Cos she keep me worried - I'm bothered all the timeWell I love you woman, love your husband too
I have to love your husband just to be with you
'Cos he don't allow no man around his house
Because he don't allow no man around his houseWell my mama told me my papa too
Don't let that woman be the death of you
'Cos she didn't allow me stay out all night long
Because she didn't allow me to stay out all night longWhat you do when they tear your barrelhouse down
Gonna take my suitcase hunt some other town now
What you do when they tear your barrelhouse down
Gonna take my suitcase hunt some other town- Solo -Well they say everybody talking 'bout your Hunkie Tunkie Blues
Everybody's talking 'bout your Hunkie Tunkie Blues
Well they say everybody talking 'bout your mother Hunkie Tunkie BluesWell they say everybody talking 'bout your Hunkie Tunk baby
You ought to see that curly hair monkey head
Head is curly baby bushy too
'Cos his head is curly baby bushy too

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
