Dead Shrimp Blues

Dead  Shrimp  Blues  -  Robert  Johnson

I  woke  up  this  morning

and  all  my  shrimps  was  dead  and  gone

I  woke  up  this  morning

all  my  shrimp  was  dead  and  gone

I  was  thinking  about  you

baby,  why  you  hear  me  weep  and  moan

I  got  dead  shrimps  here

someone  is  fishing  in  my  pond

I  got  dead  shrimps  here

someone  fishing  in  my  pond

I've  served  my  best  bait

baby,  and  I  can't  do  that  no  harm

Everything  I  do,  babe

you  got  your  mouth  stuck  out

Hole  where  I  used  to  fish

you  got  me  posted  out

Everything  I  do,  you  got

our  mouth  stuck  out

At  the  hole  where  I  used  to  fish

baby,  you've  got  me  posted  out

I  got  dead  shrimps  here

an  someone  fishing  in  my  pond

I  got  dead  shrimps  here

someone  fishing  in  my  pond

Catching  my  goggle-eyed

perches  and  they  barbequin'  the  bone

Now  you  taken  my  shrimps

baby,  you  know  you  turned  me  down

I  couldn't  do  nothing  until

I  got  myself  unwound

You  taken  my  shrimps

know  you  turned  me  down

Babe,  I  couldn't  do  nothing

until  I  got  myself  unwound
