Blind Lemon Jefferson Teddy Bear Blues
I'm going to make friends : with the fish in the deep
blue sea
And stop the Chicago women : from arguing over me
Come here pretty mama : going to take you far across the
pond
I'm going to make my stop in Italy : where the monkey‑man
don't belong
These women in Chicago : they like their fashions and
forms
But these women from Nashville : swear they just won't be
here long
I said fair brown : let me be your teddy bear
Tie a string on my neck : and I'll follow everywhere
