Lyrics John Lee Hooker

John Lee Hooker

Gonna Use My Rod

Look at here now, man

I done told you one time

I ain't gonna tell you no more

Leave my wife alone, I take you in

And you wore my cloth

You spend my money

You slept in my bed

And you know it ain't right

You come to me

You had no place to stay

You said, "Johnny, let me stay with you"

I said, "Yeah man"

I fixed the place for you

When I found out

You're goin' out with my wife

You know it ain't right

I'ma warn you

I'ma warn you right now

Don't play with me

Keep on doin' the thing you do

Next time, I'll tell you

I'm gonna use my rod

I'm gonna use my rod, oh yeah

I'm gonna use my rod

Now, man, you know you ain't doin' it right

You know that ain't right

You're goin' around, yeah

You tellin' everybody you got my wife

Oh yeah, I ain't gonna tell you no more

Next time, I'll tell you

I'm gonna use my rod, oh yeah, oh yeah

I'm gonna use my rod

You know man, you know you ain't doin' right

You know you ain't

I come to you as man to man

And tell you, leave my wife alone

Next time, I'll tell you

I'm gonna use my rod

I'm gonna use my rod

I'm gonna use my rod

I'm gonna use my rod
