Barrel House Blues lyrics
by Ma Rainey
[Verse 1]
Got the barrel house blues, feelin' awfully dry
Got the barrel house blues, feelin' awfully dry
I can't drink moonshine 'cause I'm 'fraid I'll die
[Verse 2]
Papa likes his sherry, mama likes her port
Papa likes his sherry, mama likes her port
Papa likes to shimmy, mama likes to sport
[Verse 3]
Papa likes his bourbon, mama likes her gin
Papa likes his bourbon, mama likes her gin
Papa likes his outside women, mama like outside men
