A take on a Blind Boy Fuller Fave...
A one man band of acoustic, laid back and sometimes stompin'Country Blues and contemporary' Music....
I'm a one man band...Acoustic boxes of all types, Harmonica rack, Kazoo & Footstomp.
Story behind the song
I recorded this for the sheer joy of doing a Fuller song....A la Alan Lomax field recording...
Lyrics
Big Fat Mama/Meat Shakin’ Woman by Blind Boy Fuller
I got a big fat woman, meat shakin’ on her bone.
I said hey, hey, meat shakin’ on her bone.
And every time she shakes, some man’s dollar gone.
Said, I asked my woman, give me her smallest change
I said hey, hey, give me her smallest change
And the dollars come choppinn down, baby, just like drops of rain
If you boys take my woman, you can’t keep her long
I said hey, hey, you can’t keep her long
I got a new way of getting’down, you monkey men can’t catch on.
Send for my dinner, I want ham and eggs
Hey, hey I want ham and eggs
And for my supper, women I want to see your legs
Now you let me see your leg, and it felt so soft
Hey,hey and it felt so soft
Then you know what you promised me, baby please don’t put me off.
