Hoo-Doo Snake Doctor Blues Songtext
von Johnny Shines

I goin′ t' surprise my baby, and I tipped up to her door
I go′ surprise my baby, and I tipped up to her door
I couldn't hear nothing but bed springs crying
And slats falling all on the floor


I thought my baby was sick when I heard a grunting sound
I thought my baby was sick when I heard a grunting sound
Well, I peeped through my window
I thought Doc was trying to hold her down

I know sick people need quietness, so I didn't dare open up my trap
I know sick people need quietness, so I didn′t dare open up my trap
I know Doc was a hoodoo man
When I saw that huge snake laying in her lap
