It Don't Take Me No Three Days

I Been Doing The Same Things As In My Younger Days, When I Was Coming Up, And Now Here I Am, An Old Man, Up There In The Charts. And I Say, Well, What Happened? Have They Just Thought Up The Real John Lee Hooker, Is That It? And I Think, Well, I Won't Tell Nobody Else! I Can't Help But Wonder What Happened.

I'm Even Afraid To Lay Down With You At Night, Because When You Go To Bed At Night, Mean Woman, You Got An Ice Pick In Your Hand.

I Hitchhiked, Took Trucks 'n' Trains - Anything That Would Pick Me Up. I Stopped In Memphis For About Six Months And They Found Me And Come Got Me. Stayed About A Month An' Split Again.

The Way Will Moore Taught Me, And The Way I Play It, The Blues Is Just Something Different.

I've Got Enough Money To Live Me Two Lifetimes So I Don't Have To Do Nothing I Don't Want To.
