Mad Blues

Oh baby, it's a sin to tell a lie
Yeah, it's a sin to tell a lie
Girl, the day you start jumpin'
Baby, that's the day you die
Baby, you'd best believe me what I say
Yeah, best believe me what I say
Don't ask 'bout no trouble,
'Cause I'll plug you anyway
You think you got yourself some trouble, you know that's true
I believe somethin' bad gonna happen to you
Yeah, it's a sin to tell a lie
Baby, the day you start jivin',
That's the day you die
Go ahead now, whip it up!
[Instrumental]
Yeah baby, you'd best believe me when I say
Yeah, you'd best believe me when I say
Please don't buy no trouble,
'Cause I'll blow your head away
Yeah go on, go on guitar!
[Instrumental]
Oh baby, I done heard this stuff before
Baby, baby, I done heard this stuff before (you know I have)
You prayin' all night long,
Baby, please don't go
Oh baby...
Baby, yeah...
You know I been a long time, baby...
You know I ain't lyin' baby, baby...
Baby, baby...
