Shake ’em Down Songtext
von Bukka White

Get your nightcap mama, and your gown
Maybe ′fore day we're gonna shake ′em on down, eeh
Done stopped hollerin', oh, must I shake 'em on down?
I done stopped hollerin′, mama, must I shake ′em on down?

Too much of jelly to be throwed away
Save this jelly for some old rainy day, eeh
Done stopped hollerin', oh, must I shake ′em on down?
I done stopped hollerin', mama, must I shake ′em on down?


Fix my supper and let me go to bed
This white lightnin' done gone to my head, eeh
Must I holler, oh, must I shake ′em on down?
I done stopped hollerin', mama, must I shake 'em on down?

I ain′t been in Georgia, but I′ve been told
Georgia women got the best jellyroll, eeh
Done stopped hollerin', oh, must I shake ′em on down?
I done stopped hollerin', mama, must I shake ′em on down?

See, see, mama what you done done
Made me love you now your man done come, eeh
Done stopped hollerin', oh, must I shake ′em on down?
I done stopped hollerin', mama, must I shake 'em on down?


Baby got somethin′, don′t know what it is
Make me drunker than an old whiskey still, eeh
Done stopped hollerin', oh, must I shake ′em on down?
I done stopped hollerin', must I shake ′em on down?
