Ramblin' Jack Elliott - Mean Old Bedbug Blues lyrics

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 jacka**, will bite you and stand and grin Bed bug as big as a jacka**, will bite you and stand and grin Will drink all the bed bug poison, 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 mother prayin', Lord, gimme some more to eat
