Well my mama she didn't 'low me, just to stay out all night long, oh Lord
Well my mama didn't 'low me, just to stay out all night long
I didn't care what she didn't 'low, I would boogie-woogie anyhow

When I first came to town people, I was walkin' down Hastings Street
Everybody was talkin' about, the Henry Swing Club
I decided I drop in there that night
When I got there, I say, "Yes, people"
They was really havin' a ball!
Yes, I know
Boogie Chillen'!

One night I was layin' down,
I heard mama 'n papa talkin'
I heard papa tell mama, let that boy boogie-woogie,
It's in him, and it got to come out
And I felt so good,
Went on boogie'n just the same

Sally Mae, Sally Mae
Lord, you know you ain't treat'n me right
Sally Mae, Sally Mae
Lord, you know you ain't treat'n me right
You stay out all night long
Lord, you know you ain't treat'n me right

You're a no good weed
Lord, the cows, won't mow you down
You're a no good weed
Lord, the cows, won't mow you down
I was chief of police, I would drive you out of town
George! Play the blues!

You ought to leave this town, Sally Mae
You ought to leave here to stay
You ought to leave this town
Y'ought to leave here to stay
Your reputation, Sally Mae
Your reputation ain't no good

Sally Mae, Sally Mae
Y'ought to change in your younger days
Yeah!
Sally Mae, Sally Mae
Y'oughtta change your ways in your younger days
Better change now Sally Mae
Change in your younger days

When I first thought to hobo'in, hobo'in,
I took a freight train to be my friend, oh Lord
You know I hobo'd, hobo'd, hobo'd, hobo'd,
Hobo'd a long, long way from home, oh Lord

Yes, my mother followed me that mornin', me that mornin'
She followed me down to the yard, oh yeah
She said my son he'd gone, he'd gone, he'd gone
Yes he's gone in a, poorsome wear*, oh yeah

Yes I left my dear old mother, dear old mother
I left my honor, need* a crime, oh Lord
Take care of my child,
Take care, take care of my child

(John Lee Hooker / Bernard Besman)

Well, my baby she long and she tall and she weep like a willow tree
Well, my baby long and she's tall and she weep like a willow tree
Ev'ry time she love me, she make my love come down

I seen my baby this mornin', she was weepin' to herself
I seen my baby this mornin', she was weepin' to herself
She says, "John Lee, I need lovin' and I just can't help myself, yes, baby"

Uh, huh?

Hey, yes love me, love me, love me, daddy, love me all night long
Yeah, love me, love me, daddy and love me all night long
'cause your baby, she need lovin', lovin' with a thrill

I'm a howlin' wolf
I've been howlin' all 'round your door
I'm a howlin' wolf
I've been howlin' all 'round your door
I see your smiling face
You won't hear me howl no more

When I start-ta howlin'
Dig me a hole down in the ground
When I start-ta howlin'
Dig me a hole down in the ground

Some people call me a black panther
But my baby, she knows the way I sound

I howled all night long
Everyday I lays up and take my sleep
I howls all night long
Everyday I lays up and take my sleep

After sundown
That's when I makes my full decree

(John Lee Hooker / Bernard Besman)

Queen bee, queen bee, queen bee, queen bee, please come back to me
Queen bee, queen bee, queen bee yes, queen bee, please come back to me
'cause you got the best darn stinger any queen bee I ever seen

Hmm, she stung me this mornin', yes, yes, yes, I been lookin' for all day long
She stung me this mornin', I've been lookin' for my queen bee a day long
Got me to the place one time, hate to see my queen bee leave home

Hmm, stinger long as my right arm
Every time she stings me, Lord, it makes my blood run warm

I'm in the mood baby, I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood baby, I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood, I'm in the mood, baby, I'm in the mood for love

I said night time is the right time, to be with the one you love
You know when night come baby, God know, you're so far away
I'm in the mood, I'm in the mood baby, I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood, in the mood, baby, in the mood for love

I said yes, my mama told me, to leave that girl alone
But my mama didn't know, God know, girl was puttin' down
I'm in the mood, I'm in the mood baby, in the mood for love
I'm in the mood, I'm in the mood, baby, in the mood for love
