Yo Yo Blues - Barbecue Bob, Spanish tuning, with a slide.
SOLO
Got up this mornin', my yo yo mama was gone
I got up this mornin', my yo yo mama was gone
I stood by my bedside and I hung my head, my head and mourned
SOLO INTERLUDE
Walked down the streets, I couldn't be satisfied
I walked down the streets, I couldn't be satisfied
I had some yo yo blues, just to mean to, just to mean to cry
SOLO INTERLUDE
It ain't none of my business, but it sure ain't right
It ain't none of my business, but it sure ain't right
Take another man's woman, and play your yo yo, play yo yo all night
SOLO INTERLUDE
I'm a stranger here, I just blowed in your town
I'm a stranger here, I just blowed in your town
I wants to yo yo, please don't turn me, please don't turn me down
SOLO INTERLUDE
And if I mistreat you I sure don't mean no harm
If I mistreat you I sure don't mean no harm
I'm a yo yoin' daddy and I don't know right from, don't know right from wrong
SOLO INTERLUDE
I'm long and tall, like a cannonball
And I'm long and tall, like a cannonball
Takes a long tall papa to make a good gal, make a good gal squall
SOLO INTERLUDE
I'm a stranger here, I come in on this train
I'm a stranger here, I come in on this train
I long to hear some good gal call my, gal call my name
SOLO INTERLUDE
(Falsetto) Hee-ee-ee, ee-ee-ee
Hee-ee-ee, ee-ee-ee
Hee-ee-ee, ee-ee, ee-ee-ee
SOLO INTERLUDE
I got up this morning, I sure was feeling bad
When I got up this mornin, I sure was feelin' bad
But, honey, I couldn't do nothin' but wash my face and, my face and hands
SOLO INTERLUDE
(Falsetto) Hee-ee-ee, hee-ee-ee
Hee-ee-ee, hee-ee-ee
Hee-ee-ee, hee-ee, hee-ee-ee
