Sleepy John Estes Milk Cow Blues Lyrics

Now, asked sweet mama to let me be her kid,
She says I might get buggish, like to keep it hid
Well she looked at me, she begin to smile
Says, "I thought I would use you for my man a while
That's, just don't let my husband catch you there
Now, says, "Just don't let my husband catch you there."

Now, went upstairs to pack my leavin' trunk
I never saw no whiskey the blues done made me sloppy drunk Say, I never saw no whiskey, blues done made me sloppy drunk
Now, I never saw no whiskey but the blues done made me sloppy drunk

Now, some say the beans, some says it was bean
But it's the slow consumption, killin' you by degrees
Lord, it's a slow consumption, killin' you by degrees
Now, just a slow consumption and it's killin' you by degrees
