Diggin’ My Potatoes Songtext
von Sonny Terry

Oh, you been diggin′ my potatoes, crampin' on my farm
Oh, you been diggin′ my potatoes, crampin' on my farm
Well, I have a special plan, restin' on my mind

Well, my farm′s all green, ′tatoes painted red
I didn't find a crew top, caught the fool in my bed

You know, he diggin′ my potatoes, crampin' on my farm
Well, I have a special plan, restin′ on my mind

Well, I went down town this mornin', left my gate unlatched
When I came back home, that fool in my ′tattoo patch

You know, he diggin' my potatoes, crampin' on my farm
Well, I have a special plan, restin′ on my mind


Oh, I tipped up to my window, I wished I had a gun
My farm wrapped around the fool, you know, he was goin′ South

You know, he diggin' my potatoes, crampin′ on my farm
Well, I have a special plan, restin' on my mind

Well, you know she powdered her face and water-waved her hair
Know she caught a taxi, goin′ cross town somewhere

You know, she diggin' my potatoes, crampin′ on my farm
Well, I have a special plan, restin' on my mind
Restin' on my mind
Restin′ on my mind
Restin′ on my mind
Restin' on my mind
