Hats Off To (Roy) Harper
(Traditional. Arranged by Charles Obscure)
When I done quit hollerin' baby I believe
I'll shake 'em on down
Get my babe won't be late,
You know by that I mean seconds late ah.
Must I holler must I shake 'em on down,
Well I've been mistreated babe
I believe I'll shake 'em on down.
Shake ah.
Well I ain'n no money
I can climb no tree
No brown skin woman gonna make no monkey out of me
I ain't no monkey
I can climb no tree
I've been mistreated babe
I believe I'll shake 'em on down.
Well I've been mistreated babe
I believe I'll shake 'em on down.
Listen mama
Gave my baby twenty dollar bill
If that don't get her sure my shot
Shot, shot-gun will
Yeah I gave my baby a twenty dollar bill
If that don't get that woman,
I'm sure my shot-gun will.
