papa charlie jackson - coffee pot blues lyrics
you can always tell : when your good gal don’t want to
be seen
because your meals ain’t ready : the house is never
clean
just like hunting for a needle : buried in a bed of
sand
that is to find a woman : haven’t got no man
three barrels of whiskey : mama four barrels of gin
she said the -headknots- at home : daddy and you can’t
in
it was early one morning : just at the close of four
when dolly smith : knocked on evelyn’s door
she jumped up sweet babe : tipped on across the floor
hollering long tall daddy : don’t you knock no more
it was in the loving kitchen : where they made the plot
for to poison her father and her mother : in the
coffeepot
then they carried the remains : throwed it out in the
-sh-r–
killed fifteen chickens
policeman said to freddie : what do you know about this
says i guess : you’ll have to go arrest poor dolly
smith
then they carried poor dolly : put her behind the bar
give him thirty‑nine days : mama and that ain’t all
poor evelyn’s in jail : with her back turned to the
wall
hollering cool kind daddy : you know you the cause it
all
i’m going to sing this time : ain’t going to sing no
more
because my throat’s got dry : swear my tonsil’s sore
