Mean Old Bedbug Blues - Bessie Smith
Gals bed bugs sure is evil they don't mean me no good
Yeah bed bug sure is evil they don't mean me no good
Thinks he's a woodpecker and I'm a chunk of wood
When I lay down at night I wonder how can a poor gal sleep
When I lay down at night I wonder how can a poor gal sleep
When some is holding my hand others eating my feet
Bed bug as big as a jackass1 will bite you and stand and grin
Bed bug as big as a jackass will bite you and stand and grin
Will drink all the bed bur for them turn around and bite you again
Something moan in the corner I went over and see
Something moan in the corner I went over and see
It was the bed bug a prayin' Lord gimme some more cheese
