Blow Out
Come on and do what you came to do
to do without
when in doubt whip it out
Cut me in or cut it out(Refrain)
I'm a time bomb ticking
about to explode
a worn out tire
beating up the road
And God knows
I'm gonna keep on rolling
Until I blow outCome on use me
let me use you
come on , use it up
time is now
take em off
baby gonna tear it up(Refrain)
The night is ours
and the tank is full
speed it up
roll it up
light it
pass it to me
gonna smoke it up(Refrain)
Gimme a chance
gimme a shot to f*ck it up
runnin hot
overheatin
baby gonna self destruct(Refrain)
I'm a time bomb ticking
about to explode
A wild fire burning out of control
And God knows
I'm gonna keep on rolling
Until I blow out
Come Go With Me
Left yah in the doorway screaming and crying
Left you five children, Lord ain't none are mine.
No Lord ain't none are mine. None are mine.
Left you five children, none are mine.Left yah in the doorway, screaming and crying.
Stay 'round here for to weep and moan
Come go with me I'll love you all night long
I love you all night long. All night long.
Come go with me I'll love yah all night longStay 'round here to weep and moan.
Refuse me woman, that would be your loss
Stick to yah closer than Jesus to the cross
Than Jesus to the cross. To the cross.
Closer than Jesus, to the cross.Refuse me woman, that would be your loss.
(Musical Break)
Your heart sank like a rock cast out in the sea
Can't put your faith in a man like me
Not in a man like me. Man like me.
Put your faith in a man like me.Your heart sank like a rock out in the sea.
Come go with me I turn your money green.
Show you things, girl, you ain't never seen.
No you ain't never seen. Never seen.
Like a Rockafeller, never seen.Come go with me I'll turn your money green.
Eaglebird
Crazy 'bout the way my eaglebird fly
Swing low and let yo' daddy ride
Got to get it high before we can swing
So fly on by, take me under yo' wingFly all day
Fly all night long
My eaglebird fly all day
Fly all night longShe took me into her nest
Lay my poor heart to rest
Lay me down easy beyond the horizon
Came to staring at the sun
can you dig what she'd done
Get me a feather for my cap and a notch on my gun(music)
Fly all day
Fly all night long
Fly all day
Fly all night long
My eaglebird
I'd Love To Be A Hippy
(lyrics by Champion Jack Dupree/additional lyrics by Jim Dickinson)I'd love to be a hippy
But my hair won't grow that long
I'd love to be a hippy
But my hair won't grow that long
Just crazy about the way
All the hippies carry onHe might go up the mountain
Tryin' to find a hiding place
He might go up on the mountain
Tryin' to find a hiding place
No matter where you go
He's got the long beard all in his faceI'd love to be a hippy
High up in the hills
Down in Mississippi
Taking all those hippy pills
I'd love to be a hippy
But my hair won't grow that long
Just crazy about the way
All the hippies carry on(Crazy. Come on, son. Play it back for me one time. Somethin' ain't right.)
Now, your family will drive you to smoking reefer
Make the young girls sniff cocaine
Now, your family will drive you to smoking reefer
Make the young girls sniff cocaine
Take a little drink of whiskey
Flush the dirt right down the drainI don't wanna be a teacher
'Cause a teacher stays in school
I don't wanna be a farmer
I wasn't born to work like a mule
I don't wanna be a preacher
'Cause a preacher can't have no fun
I don't wanna be a soldier
So don't shoot me with your gun
But I'd love to be a hippy
But my hair won't grow that long
I'm crazy about the way
All the hippies carry onWell, well, well, well, well, well, well.
Keep The Devil DownDirty Red's got his pockets full of them things
Standing on a corner in Holly Springs
They busted Dirty Red in Hickory Flat, y'all
Old Dirty is a soldier, Red ain't no ratIf you raise the devil
It can't keep the devil down
And now I've found the starry crown
If you raise the devil
Can't keep the devil down
Don't look him in the eye
The devil is a lieThem things got me snapping like a fighting dog
Drinking gun powder from a rotten log
Old habits die hard, I'm damn sho' stuck in my way
It's the nature of the beast that one of these daysI'm a gonna raise the devil
It can't keep the devil down
If you've found the starry crown
And you raise a devil
It can't keep the devil down
Don't look him in the eye
The devil is a lieIf you raise the devil
Can't keep the devil down
And now I've found the starry crown
If you raise the devil
And can't keep the devil down
Don't look him in the eye
The devil is a lie

Mizzip
by Cody DickinsonPlay that funky music 'til the sun goes down
People get together
Make a joyful sound
Play that funky music 'til the sun come up
People get down
Can't get enough
Whenever they hear this song
Get up
drive down
start singing alongDeep down in Mississippi
South of Tennessee
In the back woods
Under the sycamore tree
Just like a bee
Make the honey drip
Chompin at the bit
Little MizzipPull the wagon over and
Let me be the mule
Let me pay my tithe
Before I play the fool
Milk that cow
Plow that hoe
Plant that seed
Part it with the hoeDeep down in Mississippi
South of Tennessee
In the back woods
Under the sycamore tree
There's a girl I know
Who can shake her hips
Got me chompin at the bit
Little MizzipDown in Mississippi
South of Tennessee
In the back woods
Where you gonna find me
Shake her hips
Make the honey drip
Right on the tip
Little MizzipShe's a trip
Little Mississipp
(Come on, Come one)
She can shake her hips
Little Mizzip
Make the honey drip
Play that funky music 'til the sun come up
Little Mississipp
People get down
Can't get enough
Flip the switch
(Get up get up Get down)
Play that funky music 'til the sun go down
Little Mizzipp
People get together make a joyful sound
You know my ship
Play that funky music 'til the sun come up
(Ahhh whoooo)
Little Mizzipp
People get down
Can't get enough
Got a good grip
Play that funky music 'til the sun go down
(Down Down Down Down)
People get together make a joyful sound(Get down can't you see yah, oh, oh )
Deep down in Mississippi
South of Tennessee
In the back woods
Under the sycamore tree
Just like a bee
Make the honey drip
Chompin at the bit
Little MizzipDeep down in Mississippi
South of Tennessee
In the back woods
Under the sycamore tree
There's a girl I know
Who can shake her hips
Got me chompin at the bit
Little MizzipDeep down in Mississippi
South of Tennessee
In the back woods
Where you gonna find me
Take her hips
Make the honey drip
Right on the lips
Little Mizzip(Mississippi, yeah, yeah....)
Rooster's BluesIt's a dirty job
but don't make me do it.
You're gonna get robbed
Somebody gotta do it.Nothing make you fail but a try
Stay up all night, huh, try to get high.
A dirty job
You're gonna bite the bullet
You're gonna get robbed
And rub your nose in itLow down dirty dog
Take it to the bank
I'll turn you upside down
and shake yah by your ankles
It's a dirty job
but don't make me do it.
You're gonna get robbed
They put me up to it.Need no needle, but I crave the spoon
A country boy, reaching for the moonA crook knows a crook
won't you put it on the table
quit holding out
While you still able
as a dirty job
You're gonna bite the bullet
You're gonna get robbed
Rub your nose in it.Don't know the words, I can sing the tune
Country boy, reaching for the moon
Stones in my passway, hounds on my trail
Don't like the way that she done me
Riding these rails(Musical Break)
It's a dirty job
but don't make me do it.
You're gonna get robbed
You put me up to it.It's a dirty job
You don't bite the bullet
You're gonna get robbed
And rub your nose in itIt's a dirty job
It's a dirty job
It's a dirty job

SoldierSittin' on the roof, no help has come
Floods overflowing
High water everywhere, we lost our homes
Floods overflowingMy cup is empty and my mouth is dry
Old hannah beatin down from up on high
Do you think you make a soldier, a soldier of the cross
Do you think you make a soldier, in the army of the LordThe levee blew out into the city
Hell's overflowing
The Devil running loose oh Lord have mercy
Hell's overflowingGod gave Noah that rainbow sign
It won't be water, but fire next time
Do you think you make a soldier, a soldier of the cross
Do you think you make a soldier, in the army of the Lord(Musical Break)
Up all night praying to the moon
Clouds over, blowing
If I ever sleep again it will be no time soon
Tomorrow's never comingMy cup is empty and my mouth is dry
That old dirty water on the rise
Do you think you make a soldier, a soldier of the cross
Do you think you make a soldier, in the army of the Lord
Take Yo Time, RodneyAnd I don't know how can a woman
do a man so wrong.
She can run around all night
don't never come homeI walk the streets all night
lookin' for that girl of mine
found her sloppy drunk
down at the county line.Oh Lord it's so wrong
Oh Lord it's so wrong
OH LORD IT'S too far goneHad all I can stand
you know wrong is wrong
Someone come up missing
I'll be long goneOh Lord it's so wrong
Oh Lord it's so wrong
OH LORD IT'S too far goneShe's shaking like a leaf
trembling on a tree
She can't look me in the face
the way she doing meOh Lord it's so wrong
Oh Lord it's so wrong
OH LORD
We're too far gone
