Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee lyrics

You Hear Me Talkin' blues lyrics

Got a girl in Atlanta, two in Alabama,
Three in Mississippi, four in Memphis, Tennessee.
Chorus: You hear me talkin', you hear me talkin' to you,
Well, don't let your right hand know what your left hand do.
Got a girl in Atlanta, two in Alabama,
Three in Mississippi, four in Memphis, Tennessee.
You hear me talkin', you hear me talkin',
You hear me talkin' to you, you hear me talkin'.
Well, my hook's in the water, my cock's on top,
How can I lose with the help I got.
One is for the money, two is for the show,
Three is to get ready, four you can go.
Well, believe half you see, nothing that you hear,
Your enemies can't harm you, don't let your friends come near.
You hear me talkin', you hear me talkin',
You hear me talkin' to you, you hear me talkin'.
Well, I got me three women livin' on the same old road,
One does my washing, one my ironing, one pays my room and board.
You hear me talkin', you hear me talkin',
You hear me talkin' to you, you hear me talkin'.
