<b>Buggy Ride</b> by <i>Roosevelt Sykes</i><br />

I'm 'onna flag me a buggy ride

And I'm goin' to the back of town

I'm 'on flag me a buggy ride, man

An I'm goin' on to the back of town

They tell me dey play the blues back there

And I likes the way they sound, man

Now, you gon' meet old Thin Belly

And you gonna see Sister Kokomo

Yeah, you gon' meet Thin belly

And you gonna see Sister Kokomo, my!

They say she wins all the money

And I b'lieve she's got a mojo, mercy!

'Oh, yeah, ride'

'Ride on' (piano)

'Whoa, yeah ride'

'Walk that dog a while, now (you in now)

She cook me a pot a-neckbones

Told me it was Rhode Island Red, my my

(That sister Kokomo, that what she done)

She cooked a pot a-neckbones

And told me it was Rhode Island Red

I said, look-a-here, baby

If that's chicken I want you to show me

His feets and head

Now, if you wanna have a good time

Just lay yo' money on the line

Man, d'you wanna have a ball?

Just lay dat money on the line

Whoa, they got that good hot fried fish

And that good old corn moon shine...
