Shake 'Em On Down-Furry Lewis

Shake 'Em On Down-Furry Lewis
EAEGBE tuning, at C#

I went to the gypsy for to get my hambone done
The gypsy said, "Furry, 'clare, you sure need one."
REFRAIN: Now, must I holler, or must I shake 'em on down
Babe, I'm so tired of holl'in', Lord, I b'lieve I shake 'em on down

If I just could holler like the Bob Lee, Jr. blow
I call my babe off the killin' floor
REFRAIN: Cryin', must I holler, or must I shake 'em on down
Oh, so tire', darlin', oh, I b'lieve I shake 'em on down

I don't drink no whiskey, wine, neither gin
If you see me sober, make me drunk again
REFRAIN: Now, must I holler, baby, must I shake 'em on down
I'm gettin' so tire', darlin', and I b'lieve I'll shake 'em on down

I woke up this mornin', looked at the risin' sun
Train don't hurry gonna be some walkin' done
REFRAIN: Baby, must I holler, or must I shake 'em on down
Oh, so tire', darlin', babe, I b'lieve I'll shake 'em on down

Babe, I ain't good-lookin' and it ain't the clothes I wear
But good kind treatment takes me everywhere
REFRAIN: Baby, must I holler
Oh, so tired of holl'in', baby, and I b'lieve I shake 'em on down

Baby, you know you don't want me, you ought to let me know
Poor boy, you done driv' me away from my home
REFRAIN: I'm so tired of holl'in', and I b'lieve I'll shake 'em on down
Ohh, so tire', darlin', b'lieve I'll shake 'em on down
