Drop Down Blues by Big Joe Williams Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1946

[Verse 1]
Drop down, drop down, baby
If you care to go
Get a car getting over a mile
Your horn won't even blow

[Chorus]
Now, drop down, baby
Let me overhaul your little machine
My baby got a loose carburetor
Sonny boy bleached with burning bad gasoline

[Verse 2]
Well you know the jack of diamonds so little
Queen of spade'
Drop down baby, and come on, be on your
Creeping way

[Chorus]
But, drop down baby
Well, I'm gonna overhaul your little machine
Well, my baby got a loose carburetor
I believe she been burning bad gasoline
[Verse 3]
She got some some of them [sweet'm teacher's boys?]
Dog grows on the trees
Summer sweet as honey, boy, you know it don't
Come from the deep

[Chorus]
But, drop down baby
Let me overhaul your little machine
Well, she got a loose carburetor
I believe my baby been burning bad gasoline

Lay it onto me sonny boy!
[Players?] of nineteen and forty six, Lord!

[Verse 3]
I'm gonna raise your motor baby
I'm gonna hoist your hood
Your spark plug getting old, mama
Little car ain't getting sparked good

[Chorus]
But, drop down baby
Let me overhaul your little machine
Well, my baby got a loose carburetor
Boy, and I believe she burning bad gasoline
Yes man! What kind of woman I got?
