Текст (слова) песни: Lonnie Johnson - New Black Snake Blues-Part 1 (1928)
VS: Ahhhh, ahhhh, ahhhhhh, huh huh, Ahhhhh, huh huh, hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmmm. LJ: Something keep a moanin’, I don’t know what it is.
VS: In my path lays a black snake, ‘bout 8 or 9 inches. Here me screamin’, man I ain’t dreamin’. In my path lay a black snake, ‘bout 8 or 9 inches long. Got my axe and mean to kill him, before he sucks my rider stone.
LJ: When my right eye winks, on my knees I begin to crawl. When my right eye winks, on my knees I begin to crawl. It will be hell to tell the capt’n, if I catch another man kickin’ in my stall.
VS: Ohhh, want my black snake to come back home. Hmm, wonder if my black snake will come back home. Wonder if he’s been [with] another woman, Lord since he been gone.
LJ: There’s no use a worryin’, a baby ‘bout the time being, early in the morning, late every night. There’s no use a worryin’, baby ‘bout the days being long. The black snake has got the best of you, can’t roll him from home.
