Rabbit Foot Blues Songtext
von Blind Lemon Jefferson

Blues jumped a rabbit, run him one solid mile
Blues jumped a rabbit, run him one solid mile

Some Uneeda biscuits gal and a half a pint o′ gin
The gin is mighty fine but them biscuits are a little too thin

I wanna know about the meatless and wheatless days
This not being my home, I don′t think I could stay

Got an airplane, baby, now we're gonna get us a submarine
An airplane, now we′re gonna get us a submarine
Gonna get that Kaiser and we'll be seldom seen

Mmmm-mmm, hitch me to your buggy, mama, drive me like a mule
Hitch me to your buggy and drive me like a mule
The reason I'm goin′ home with you sugar, I ain′t
