Prince Albert Hunt — Blues In A Bottle lyrics

Lyrics

Blues in a bottle, blues in a bottle
Stopper in my hand, pretty mama
Blues in a bottle, stopper in my hand
I’m going back to Fort Worth, find me another man
Dig your 'taters, go dig your 'taters
It’s 'tater digging time, pretty mama
Go dig your 'taters, it’s 'tater digging time
Old man Jack Frost done and killed your vine
Asked my baby, asked my baby
Could she stand to see me cry, pretty mama?
Asked my baby, could she stand to see me cry?
Said, «Whoa, black daddy, I can stand to see you die»
Rooster chews tobacco, rooster chews tobacco
The hen uses snuff, pretty mama
The rooster chews tobacco and the hen uses snuff
The little chickens don’t use nothing but they strut their stuff
Going to Chattanoogie, going to Chattanoogie
See my pony run, pretty mama
Going to Chattanoogie, see my pony run
If I win some money, gonna give my baby some
