Mean Old Bedbug Blues Songtext
von Furry Lewis

Mean old bedbug sho′ is evil, he don't mean me no good
Mean old bedbug sho′ is evil, he don't mean me no good
He thinks I'm a woodpecker and he takes me for a chunk o′ wood
When I lay down at night I wonder how can a poor man sleep
When I lay down at night I wonder how can a poor man sleep
With one hole in your head while the other one in your feet
Bedbug′s big as a jackass, he will bite you, stand and grin
Bedbug's big as a jackass, will bite you and stand and grin Drink a bowl of bedbug poison, come back and bite you again
Saw one morn′ in a corner, Lord I tried so hard to see
Saw one morn' in a corner, Lord I tried so hard to see
It was a mother bedbug Lord, prayin′ for some oat to eat
I had to sit up all night long, my feet can't touch the floor
I had to sit up all night long, my feet can′t touch the floor
Cause the mean old bedbug told me I can't live there no more
