Banty Rooster Blues

Charley Patton

I'm gonna buy me a banty, put him at my backdoor
I'm gonna buy me a banty, put him at my backdoor
So when he see a stranger a-comin', he'll flap his wings and crow

What you want with a rooster, he won't crow 'fore day
What you want with a rooster, he won't crow 'fore day
What you want with a man, when he won't do nothin' he say

What you want with a hen won't, cackle when she lays
What you want with a hen won't, cackle when she lays
What you want with a woman, when she won't do nothin' I say

Ah, take my picture, hang it up in Jackson wall
Ah, take my picture, hang it up in Jackson wall
Anybody asks you "What about it", tell 'em "That's all I saw"

My hook's in the water, and my cork's on top
My hook's in the water, and my cork's on top
How can I lose, Lord, with the help I got

I know my dog anywhere I hear him bark
I know my dog anywhere I hear him bark
I can tell my rider, if I feel her in the dark
