Milkcow's Calf Blues (take 1) Lyrics - Robert Johnson

Tell me, milkcow, what on earth is wrong with you? 

Hoo, milkcow, what on earth is wrong with you? 

Now, you have a little new calf, hoo, and your milk is turnin' blue 

Now, your calf is hungry, and I believe he needs a suck 

Now, your calf is hungry, hoo, I believe he needs a suck 

But your milk is turnin' blue, hoo, I believe he's outta luck 

Now, I feel like milkin' and my, cow won't come 

I feel like shootin' and my milk won't turn, I'm cryin' please 

Please don't do me wrong 

If you see my old milkcow, baby now, hoo, drive her home 

My milkcow been ramblin', hoo, for miles around 

My milkcow been ramblin', hoo, for miles around 

Well, now she in trouble with some other man bull cow, hoo, in this strange man's town
