Drop That Sack by Papa Charlie Jackson Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Now I got a gal, works in the yard
She brings me meat and she brings me lard
The only thing that keeps me barred
The people she works for don't 'low me the yard
Gonna tell you one thing, it's a natural fact
Why don't you come on home and drop that sack?
[Chorus]
Why don't you drop that sack?
Why don't you drop that sack?
Why don't you drop that sack?
Oh honey, won't you drop that sack?
I'm gonna tell you one thing, it's a natural fact
Why don't you come on home and drop that sack?
[Verse 2]
Now I got a gal, she lives on a hill
She took her corn, she took it to the mill
The miller told her wouldn't take no toll
"I'll grind your corn into sweet jellyroll"
Gonna tell you one thing, it's a natural fact
Why don't you come on home and drop that sack?
[Chorus]
Why don't you drop that sack?
Why don't you drop that sack?
Ah, drop that sack
Why don't you drop that sack?
I'm gonna tell you one thing, it's a natural fact
Why don't you come on home and drop that sack?
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
I asked for one, she's throwin' me two
Down to the craps game, me and you
I shot two dollars, my point was nine
[?] come a-runnin' and the chips went flyin'
Gonna tell you one thing, it's a natural fact
Why don't you come on home and drop that sack?
[Chorus]
Why don't you drop that sack?
Come on, honey and drop that sack
Put on your stockings, now go on and drop that sack
What are you doing? Come on and drop that sack now
I'm gonna tell you one thing, it's a natural fact
Why don't you come on home and drop that sack?
[Verse 4]
Says I went to the gypsy to get me a hand
I seen my gal walking with another man
I said "You may go, you'll come back
If you ever come back, you got to drop that sack"
Gonna tell you one thing, it's a natural fact
Why don't you come on home and drop that sack?
[Outro]
Gonna tell you one thing, it's a natural fact
Why don't you come on home and drop that sack?
Now I got a gal, works in the yard
She brings me meat and she brings me lard
The only thing that keeps me barred
The people she works for don't 'low me the yard
Gonna tell you one thing, it's a natural fact
Why don't you come on home and drop that sack?
[Chorus]
Why don't you drop that sack?
Why don't you drop that sack?
Why don't you drop that sack?
Oh honey, won't you drop that sack?
I'm gonna tell you one thing, it's a natural fact
Why don't you come on home and drop that sack?
[Verse 2]
Now I got a gal, she lives on a hill
She took her corn, she took it to the mill
The miller told her wouldn't take no toll
"I'll grind your corn into sweet jellyroll"
Gonna tell you one thing, it's a natural fact
Why don't you come on home and drop that sack?
[Chorus]
Why don't you drop that sack?
Why don't you drop that sack?
Ah, drop that sack
Why don't you drop that sack?
I'm gonna tell you one thing, it's a natural fact
Why don't you come on home and drop that sack?
