I ain't goin' down, dirty road by myself
Babe I ain't goin' down, this old dirt road by myself
If I don't carry you baby, I'm goin' to carry me somebody else.

Well, darlin' you don't know the day have been,
A long, old lonesome day.

You know the day have been a, long old lonesome day,

When you left me this mornin',
you taken my heart away,
When you left me this mornin',
you taken my heart away,
That's allright baby,
you will come back home someday
How long, baby, how long, how long
How long, baby, how long, how long

I am a back door man.
I am a back door man.
Well the men don't know, but the little girls understand.

When everybody's sound asleep,
I'm somewhere making my midnight creep.
Yes in the morning, the rooster crow.
Something tell me, I got to go.

Bluebird bluebird, I want you to take a message down south for me
Bluebird bluebird, I want you to take a message down south for me
I want you to find Miss Liza Belle and tell her
I'm just as blue as a man can be

Bluebird, if she's not at home
You needn't worry yourself by knockin' on the door
Bluebird, if she's not at home

Some folk built like this
Some folk built like that
But the way I'm built
Don't you call me fat
Because I'm built for comfort
I ain't built for speed
But I got everything
All good girls need

My baby caught a train
Left me all alone
My baby caught a train
Left me all alone
She know I love her
She doing me wrong

My baby bought a ticket

How many more years
Have I got to let you dog me around?
How many more years
Have I got to let you dog me around?
I'd so rather be dead
Sleeping way down in the ground

If I treat you right

Oh baby baby, things are strictly on the line
Oh baby baby, things are strickly on the line
I'm gonna drink C.V., C.V.'s on my mind

I'll drink C.V., boy it's really straight
When ya drink C.V. see things really straight
If ya drink C.V. it never makes you late

Man
You know I don't enjoy things that kings and queens will never have
And things kings and queens can never get
And they don't even know about
And good times, mmmmm

I have had my fun
If I never get well no more

First I planned to stay but I can't live this way
I'm going back home where I was born
Try to understand I think this city's grand
But with all its charms give me a little country farm
I'm going back home where I was born

Oh yeah now, oh yeah, oh yeah now, oh yeah
I tell you all about it, I think you ought to know

Her lips are sweet, her legs are big
Her looks can make you dance the jig
Her touch is so soft, her heart is so warm
What knocks me out is your hidden charms

Her voice is so soft, her love is so true
I think about her, that's all I do
She's weak and wanton in my arms

Well, I ain't superstitious, black cat just cross my trail
Well, I ain't superstitious, oh the black cat just cross my trail
Don't sweep me with no broom, I might get put in jail
When my right hand itches, I gets money for sure
When my right hand itches, I gets money for sure
But, when my left eye jumps, somebody's got to go
Well, I ain't superstitious, black cat just cross my trail
Well, I ain't superstitious, black cat just cross my trail

I didn't know, you was out last night baby
No I didn't know, baby you was out last night
Well I do know, you don't treat me right
I didn't know, you was ridin' him in my car last night
No I didn't know, you was ridin' him in my car last night
Well I do know darling, you don't treat me right
I didn't know, you was down in New Orleans last night
No I didn't know, you was in New Orleans last night

Well maybe in the mornin', I don't know
Baby don't know, just how soon
But I'm leavin' you
Woman I've got to put you down
Well if you can't treat me right
Ain't no use for me hangin' around
Well you told me that you love me
You cross your heart to die

I should have quit you, a long time ago
I should have quit you, babe, long time ago
I should have quit you, and went on to Mexico
If I had-a followed my first mind
If I had-a followed my first mind
I'd been gone, since my second time
I shoulda went on, when my friend come from Mexico at me
I shoulda went on, when my friend come from Mexico at me

I should of quit you, a long time ago
I should of quit you, Babe, long time ago
I should of quit you, and went on to Mexico
If I had of followed, my first mind
If I had of followed, my first mind
I'd of been gone, since my second time
Ah

Well, somebody knocking on my door
Well, somebody knocking on my door
Well, I'm so worried, don't know where to go

Well, somebody calling me, calling on my telephone
Well, somebody calling me, over my telephone
Well, keep on calling, tell them I'm not at home

They call me the Howlin' Wolf now
And you found me howlin' at your door
They call me the Howlin' Wolf now, baby
And you know you found me howlin' at your door
You know I love you, darlin'
Don't drive the wolf from your door
(Lord have mercy, darlin')
If God forgive me

I'm a poor boy, I'm a long way from home
I'm a poor boy, I'm a long way from home
What the others do, the world can't do me no harm
I'm a poor boy, a long way from home
Babe I can't stay here long, babe I can't stay here long
What the others do, the world can't do me no harm
I'm a poor boy, I'm a long way from home
Well my, baby's dead and gone

Sure look good, but it don't mean a thing to me
Sure look good, but it don't mean a thing to me
I got a hip-shaking woman, shake like a willow tree
You better wait baby, you got back a little too late
You better wait baby, you got back a little too late
I got a cool-shaking baby, shake like jello on a plate
When my baby walk, you know she's fine and mellow
When my baby walk, you know she's fine and mellow

One summer day, she went away;
Gone and left me, she's gone to stay.
She's gone, but I don't worry:
I'm sitting on top of the world.

All the summer, worked all this fall.
Had to take Christmas in my overalls.
She's gone, but I don't worry:

Ah-oh, smokestack lightnin,
Shinin, just like gold,
Why don't ya hear me cryin?
A-whoo-hooo, oooo,
Whooo.

Whoa-oh, tell me, baby,
What's the, matter with you?

Smokestack Lightning
(Chester Burnett)

Alternate early live version

Yeah, smokestack lightning,
Don't you hear me callin'?
Don't you hear me callin'?

Here in my home
Hold on, brother hold on
The road is long, we're on stony ground
But I'm strong, and you ain't heavy
Oh there's a misspoken truth that lies
Colors don't bind, oh no
What do they know? they speak falsely

It could be a spoonful of diamonds
Could be a spoonful of gold
Just a little spoon of your precious love
Satisfies my soul.

Men lies about little
Some of them cries about little

I'm a tail dragger
I wipe out my track
When I get what I want
I don't come sneakin' back

The mighty wolf
Make it a midnight creep
The hunters

I should of quit you
A long time ago
I should of quit you baby
A long time ago
But you got me messin' round with you baby
You got me cryin' on a killin' floor, yeah
If I don't fallow, yeah
My first mind

I had a little red rooster too lazy to crow for day
I had a little red rooster too lazy to crow for day
Keep everything in the barnyard upset in every way

Oh, them dogs begin to bark, hounds begin to howl
Oh, them dogs begin to bark, hounds begin to howl
Oh, watch out strange kin people, little red rooster's on the prowl

I'm a little red rooster,
Too lazy to crow for day
I'm a little red rooster,
Too lazy to crow for day
Keep everything in the barnyard,
Upset in every way

Dogs begin to bark now,

Lookie here baby what you tryin’ to do, tryin’ to love me and another man too,
I’m worried about that baby, baby worried about you,
Baby worried about you baby, and you better be worried about me.

I’m gonna tell you this time, I ain’t gonna say no mo’, the next time I tell ya I’m gonna let you go
‘Cause I’m worried about you, baby worried about you,
Baby worried about you baby, and you better be worried bout me.

You so sweet, you so fine
How I wish, you were mine
Honey, I'll be your love
You'll be mine
You'll be mine
You'll be mine
You so nice, you so true
I'm so glad, I love you
