Jake Walk Blues lyrics

[Verse 1]
Night drink liquor, night drink rum
I drink lemonade and buttermilk some
Here’s my drink which I always choose
I’m a Jake Walk daddy with the Jake Walk blues

[Verse 2]
I got me a mama down in New Orleans
She’s long and tall, she’s keen I mean
I lost my woman, I’m singing the blues
I’m a Jake Walk daddy with the Jake Walk blues

[Verse 3]
I can't eat and I can't talk
Been drinking Jake and now I can't walk
Lost my clothes and working shoes
I’m a Jake Walk daddy with the Jake Walk blues

[Verse 4]
Down in Texas there is a moonshine
To make a ginger, make you paralyzed
I won’t let that troubled mind
I’m a Jake Walk daddy with the Jake Walk blues

[Verse 5]
You don’t want me, give me your left hand
Gonna take a jug to my buried land
Legs are stiff like a new pair of shoes
I’m a Jake Walk daddy with the Jake Walk blues
