Seven Year Itch by Otto Virgial Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1935

I woke up this mornin', clock was striking four
I woke up this mornin’, clock was striking four
I was itchin' so bad, had to pack my things and go

I run and said, "Hear this, babe, I'm goin’ cross-town to crash."
Said, "Hear this, babe, I'm goin' cross-town to crash
Now, if I don't quit itchin, babe, I won't be back."

I'm gwine up on the mountain, I'm gonna root just like a hog
Gwine up on the mountain, root just like a hog
I'm gonna drink muddy water, sleep in a hollow log

Mmm-mm-mm-hmm
Mmm-mm-mm-hmm
I’m gonna drink muddy water, sleep in a hollow log

I’m goin' to the river, sits right on the ground
I’m goin' to the river, sits right on the ground
If I start itchin' too bad, jump overboard and drown
