Hats Off To Roy Harper

When I done quit hollerin' baby

I believe I shake 'em on down

Get my babe, won't be late,

You know by that I mean seconds late

Ah, must I holler,

Must I shake 'em on down,

Well I've been mistreated, babe,

I believe I'll shake 'em on down.

Shake 'em.

Well I ain't no monkey.

I can't climb no tree,

No brown skin woman gonna make

No monkey out of me,

I ain't no monkey,

Sure can't climb no tree,

I been mistreated babe

I believe I'll shake 'em on down,

Well I've been mistreated babe

I believe I'll shake 'em on down.

Listen mama,

Put on your mornin' gown'

Put in your nightshirt

Mama we gonna shake 'em down

Must I holler

Must I shake 'em on down?

Gave my baby a twenty dollar bill,

If that don't get her,

Sure my shot, shot, shot-gun will,

Yeah, I gave my baby a twenty dollar bill,

If that don't get that woman,

I'm sure my shot-gun will.

Gonna go shoot her now…
