LOW DOWN MOJO BLUES
By Blind Lemon Jefferson
I love my baby better than a farmer likes his Jersey cow
I love my baby better than a farmer likes his Jersey cow
Been tryin' to quit my sugar these two years and, man, I don’t know how
When I was young, on my big-foot way to school
When I was young, on my big-foot way to school
I met a nice lookin' brownskin, made me lose my mammy’s rule
My rider’s got a mojo, and she won’t let me see
My rider’s got a mojo, and she won’t let me see
Every time I start to lovin', she ease that thing on me
She’s tryin' to fool her daddy, she’s tryin' to keep that mojo hid
She’s tryin' to fool her daddy, she’s tryin' to keep that mojo hid
But papa’s got something for to find that mojo with
She got four speeds forward and she don’t never stall
She got four speeds forward and she don’t never stall
The way she bucks on her hips, it would make a panther squall
