Memphis Minnie - Black Rat Swing Lyrics

Yes you is one black rat someday i'll find your trail
Yes you is one black rat someday i'll find your trail
Then i'll hide my shoe, somewhere near your shirt tail
Yes i've taken you down town,paid your doctor bills
now i'm in a little trouble and you're trying to get me killed

Says, he sneaked in my kitchen,eat up all my bread
soon as i left home,start to cutting up in my bed

Yes you is one black rat someday i'll find your trail
Yes you is one black rat someday i'll find your trail
Then i'll hide my shoe, somewhere near your shirt tail

Break, yea beat it out

he must dance in the basement,was seen in my bedroom
trapping for the youngsters
i'm gonna catch him someday soon
