22‐20 Blues Songtext
von Skip James

If I send for my baby and she don′t come
If I send for my baby and she don't come
All the doctors in Wisconsin, they won′t help her none
And if she gets unruly and gets so she don't want do
My baby gets unruly, and she don't want do
I′ll take my 22-20, I′ll cut her half in two


You talk about your 44-40, buddy, it'll do very well
Talkin′ 'bout your 44-40, it′ll do very well
But my 22-20, Lord, it's a burnin′ hell
Ah, a 38 Special, buddy, hits 'most too light
Ah, that 38 Special, buddy, hits 'most too light
But my 22-20 make the caps all right

Ah, if she gets unruly, thinks she don′t wanna do
She gets unruly, and she don′t want
I'll take my 22-20, I′ll cut her half in two

Aye, hi, hi, and I can't take my rest
Aye, aye, hi, hi, I can′t take my rest
And my 44 layin' up and down my breast
