Like a old hound dog I gots some fleas in mah fur
Jes like a hound dog I gots some fleas in mah fur
I got 'em from my baby, I dunno who gived 'em to her.

I gonna buy some powder, powder for these fleas
Gonna buy me some powder for these goddam fleas
Sprinkle it on mah baby from her head to her flea-bit knees.

I got the blues so bad I'm rolling on the floor
Flea-bite blues so bad got me rolling on the floor
I gots a mojo flea collar but it just don't work no more.

First Degree Blues

My baby woked me up this morning
My baby woked me up this morning
And she done it by lighting me on fire.

My hair is burning up right now
Oh lordy my hair is burning right now
And here come mah baby with some gasoline.

Ouch ouch ow ow ouch oh ouch ow ow
Ouch ouch lordy ouch oh ouch ow ow
Somebody call FireMed right away please.
