Mean Jumper Blues

I feel like jumping : through the keyhole in your door
If you jump this time baby : you won't jump no more
I feel like falling : from treetops to the ground
My rider's got a mean jumper : and he don't allow me around
I go there early in the morning : and I goes there late at night
Don't care how late I goes there : he hasn't ever turned down his light
I believe he's looking for me : he's up all hours at night
She used to be my rider : and he ain't treating her right
I met this jumper one morning : he was out on the out edge of town
I had to talk and plead : for to keep him from blowing me down
