Conversation Blues - Lighnin' Hopkins, Sonny Terry

Hey, I want to tell you somethin', Junior

Well, I want you to tell me somethin', make me see

Junior, I want you to tell me somethin'

Lord, tell old poor Sonny somethin', make him see

If I ever come to your home, Junior

I’m gonna bring all you women right back here with me

Oh hell, that’s the thing to do, Sonny, I got it here

Aha, you asked poor Junior to give you somethin'

Some kind of arrangement to make you see

Well, you asked poor Junior to give you something, yes I did

Whoa Lord, to make poor Sonny Terry see

You know I only got two eyes and I’ll offer you one

Whoa yeah now, don’t you think well of me?

Well, you know I would thank you, Junior

Yes, what you said is so kind to me

Whoa, what you said Junior

Lord, you know you make that feel so good to me

Well, if I could walk around and see like you, Junior

Take my right and we will be
