Ground Hog Blues Songtext
von John Lee Hooker

It′s a low down dog, a dirty ground hog
Been rootin' ′round my back door
In the back church he rootin', now man
Lord he won't root there no more

Yes he stand and he watch me
Every mornin′ when I leave home
Yes he stand and he watch me
A mornin′ when I leave home
Then when I leave home in the mornin'
Yes he hangs around all day long


Give me some toad, frog′s hip, I'm gonna
Gonna put it all together, I′m gonna
Gonna mix it up together, I'm gonna
Gonna whoop it all up good, I′m gonna
Gonna kill that ol' dirty ground hog
I bet you my bottom dollar then man he
He won't root there no more
Naw he ain′t gon′ root no more there

I say goodbye baby, Lord I'm leavin′ you now
I say goodbye baby, Lord I'm leavin′ you now
I done did what I want to done
Killed that ol' dirty ground hog
Yes he′s through
