Groundhog Rootin' in My Backyard - Jimmie Rodgers

Something about you mama sure gives me the blues, hey hey

Something about you mama sure gives me the blues

It ain’t your drop stitch stockings it ain’t your blue buckle shoes, hey hey

You know pretty mama I’m bound to love you some, it’s the truth honey

You know pretty mama I’m bound to love you some

'Cause I’ve done more for you than anybody ever done, you know it baby

Got me a pretty mama got me a bulldog too, sure have

Got me a pretty mama got me a bulldog too

My pretty mama don’t love me but my bulldog do

There’s been a groundhog rootin' round my yard at night, hey hey

There’s been a groundhog rootin' round my yard at night

For the way my mama been treatin' me he must be rootin' all right

Lord honey must be rootin' all right

I ain’t no cheap man don’t try to vamp no girls

I ain’t no cheap man don’t try to vamp no girls

It’s my regular grindin' gets me by in this world
