Lyrics:

(robert johnson)

tell me, milk cow, what on earth is wrong with you?

tell me, milk cow, what on earth is wrong with you?

well, well, you have a new calf, hoo hoo, and your milk is turnin' blue


your calf is hungry, and i believe he needs a suck

[spoken:] now, you know that calf done got hungry

your calf is hungry, and i believe he needs a suck

well, now, but the milk is turnin' blue, hoo hoo, and i believe he's outta luck


now i feel like milkin' and my, cow won't come

i feel like churnin' it and my, milk won't turn

i'm cryin' plea-hease, please, don't do me wrong

you can give-a right milk and butter, now, baby, you-hoo, will stay at home


my milk cow been ramblin', hoo hoo, for miles around

my milk cow been ramblin', hoo hoo, for miles around

she been troublin' some other bull cow, hoo hoo

lord, in this man's town
