The page contains the lyrics of the song "Hop Joint" by Mississippi John Hurt.

Lyrics

I went down to the hop joint, hop joint raising sand
Said, «Stroll back your gangway, looking for my man»
Oh my babe, why don’t you come home
I got a brand new razor, and a .44 gun
Oughta cut you if you stay here, gonna shoot you if you run
Oh my babe, why don’t you come home
I went down to the hop joint, hop joint raising sand
Said, «Stroll back your gangway, looking for my man»
Oh my babe, why don’t you come home
