I woke up this mornin' and all my shrimps was dead and gone
I woke up this mornin', all my shrimp was dead and gone
I was thinkin' about you, baby, why you hear me weep and moan
I got dead shrimps here, someone is fishin' in my pond
I got dead shrimps here, someone fishin' in my pond
I've served my best bait, baby, and I can't do that no harm
Everything I do, babe, you got your mouth stuck out
Hole where I used to fish, you got me posted out
Everything I do, you got your mouth stuck out
At the hole where I used to fish, baby, you've got me posted out
I got dead shrimps here an' someone fishin' in my pond
I got dead shrimps here, someone fishin' in my pond
Catchin' my goggle-eyed perches and they barbequin' the bone
Now you taken my shrimps, baby, you know you turned me down
I couldn't do nothin' until I got myself unwound
You taken my shrimps, know you turned me down
Babe, I couldn't do nothin' until I got myself unwound
