Levee Camp Blues

作曲：Mississippi Fred McDowell

Well i worked on the levee

Till i went stone blind

Well i worked on the levee baby

'till i went stone blind

Well you can't do me

Like you done po' shine

Lord you took his money

I declare you can't take mine

Captain come out drive him

And he won't go long all around

How can i drive him captain

And he won't go long all around

He won't eat no oatmeal

Or he won't even eat his corn

I'm a long line skinner

I got the shortest line

I'm a long time skinner

I got the shortest line

I'm a long line skinner

But i've got the shortest line

Well i worked on levee

Honey and i worked old belle

Well i worked old lou captain

Lordy and i worked old belle

I couldn't find a mule

Lord with a shoulder well

Lord that captain hollerin hurry

Boy you know i'm almost flyin'

Well that captain hollerin' hurry

Lordy and i'm almost flyin'

Lord he ain't gotta worry a bit baby

He won't even keep time
