Skeeg-A-Lee Blues by Ford and Ford Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Woke up this morning, heard somebody callin' me
I woke up this morning, heard somebody callin' me
It was my outside man [?] skeeg-a-lee

[Verse 2]
Listen, pretty mama, let me get you told
Now listen, pretty mama, let me get you told
(What are you gonna tell me, daddy?)
Candy man's comin' back, lookin' for good jelly roll

[Verse 3]
I want all you women now to simply understand
I want all you women now to simply understand
(Sing it a long time, mama)
You can have my regular, but don't mess with that outside man

[Verse 4]
I'll buy you good clothes, mama, take you to ever' bootleggin' joint in town
I'll buy you good clothes, mama, take you to ever' bootleggin' joint in town
But if I catch you whoopin', baby, I'll tear your kingdom down
[Verse 5]
Now all these women in town are cryin' "Daddy, you done put that thing on me"
(Sing it 'til the wagon come, mama)
All the women in town are cryin' "Daddy, you done put that thing on me"
Well it ain't a doggone thing, mama, but skeeg-a-lee
