Overall Cheater Blues-Washboard Walter
Washboard Walter, vocal and John Byrd, guitar in E position, standard tuning

I want you women to strictly understand
I want you women, strictly understand
Every man wear overhalls, ain't no monkey man

When you see me in my overhalls, like a stickman on his beat
When you see me in my overhalls, like a stickman on his beat
Looking for a woman that Overhall Papa can keep

I want you to iron my overhalls, iron them 'til they shine
I want you to iron my overhalls, iron them 'til they shine
I'm gonna leave you, mama, if I have to ride the blinds

I wear them at home, wear 'em up and down the street
I wear 'em at home, wear 'em up and down the street
You know, thinks I'm a working man, when I ain't nothing but a deadbeat

I'm going to the factory, going for a stall
I'm going to the factory, going for a stall
The way I make my living is wearin' good overhalls

The reason I like my overhalls, I can get good pigmeat
The reason I like my overhalls, I can get good pigmeat
They call me the overhall king, and I'm, doggone hard to beat
