Rabbit Foot Blues Lyrics

Blind Lemon Jefferson Rabbit Foot Blues

Blues jumped a rabbit, run him one solid mile
Blues jumped a rabbit, run him one solid mile
That rabbit set down, cried like a natural child

Well it seem like you’re hungry, honey come and lunch
with me
Seem like you’re hungry, honey come and lunch with me
I’m gonna stop these nice-lookin’ women from worryin’
me

I have Uneeda biscuits gal and a half a pint o’ gin
Some Uneeda biscuits gal and a half a pint o’ gin
The gin is mighty fine but them biscuits are a little
too thin

Baby tell me something ’bout the meatless and wheatless
days
I wanna know about the meatless and wheatless days
This not being my home, I don’t think I could stay

Guitar break

That dried corn flour, indeed I declare it was strong
Well that dried corn flour, indeed I declare it was
strong
People feedin’ me cornbread, I just can’t stick around
long

Got an airplane, baby, now we’re gonna get us a
submarine
An airplane, now we’re gonna get us a submarine
Gonna get that Kaiser and we’ll be seldom seen

Mmmm-mmm, hitch me to your buggy, mama, drive me like a
mule
Hitch me to your buggy and drive me like a mule
The reason I’m goin’ home with you sugar, I ain’t [much
hard to be fooled]
