Honey, It's Tight Like That - Tampa Red

Listen here folks: I’m going to sing a little song

Don’t get mad: we don’t mean no harm

There was a little black rooster: met a little brown hen

Made a date at the barn: about half past ten

I went to see my gal: up across the hall

Found another mule: kicking in my stall

Now the gal I love: she’s long and slim

When she whip it: it’s too bad Jim

Now the rooster crowed: and the hen looked around

At the *bom bom diddly*: got to carry me into town

Mama had a little dog: and its name was Ball

And if you give him a little taste: he want it all

Uncle Bud and Aunt Jane: went to *take a pan hon*

Aunt Jane fell down: and Uncle Bud

If you see my gal: tell her to hurry home

I ain’t had no sass: since she been gone

I wear my britches: up above my knees

Strut my jelly: with who I please

Uncle Bill came home: about half past ten

He see in the hole: but he couldn’t get in

Me and my brother: was up in the loft

We was seeing a film: when they broke it off
