sonny boy williamson – joe louis and john henry blues lyrics
well, while i was sit’n at madison square gardens
now, just to watch the big fight come through
hoo-hoo, well
well, just to watch the big fight come through
well-well, the ‘right-left’ that joe louis was usin’
hoo-well, man
give john henry, louis’s head the blues, now
well-well, then joe’s manager pat him on the shoulders
says, ‘joe, don’t you use that right so fast’
hoo-well, said, ‘let me talk with you, now’
said, ‘please don’t use that right so fast’
well-well, i say ‘you stop ‘n let john henrys catch his breaf’
hoo-hoo, well ‘just as long as he can last’
well, that night i didn’t have but fifty cents
i was in jackson wuppin’ with the wimen an men
hoo-well
down in jackson wuppin’ with the wimen an men
well-well, then i betted my fifty cents on joe
hoo-hoo-well, now it time i won my fifty cent back, again
(‘yas, yas, play it for me, you know’)
well-well, then john henry’s manager told him
he says, ‘john henry why don’t you use yo’ right, now?’
hoo-well, says, ‘son let me talk wit’ch you’
‘john henry why don’t you use yo’ right?’
well-well, he said, ‘joe louis ‘ill block you wit’ a-left’
hoo-well man, ‘an i swear man he just makes you tired’
