歌曲歌詞
The man I love
Got lowdown ways for true
The man I love
Got lowdown ways for true
Well I am hincty
And I'm lowdown too
He don't he can't
Hang round with dicty cats
Don't go gay-cattin'
'Round in Buffet Flats
We like our basement
And our basement rats
He ain't no honky
Gee I ain't tryin' to be
He ain't no honky
I ain't tryin' to be
So you can't make no
Honky out of me
For I was goin' lowdown away
Down in the low ground
Everyday I get low as a toad
My home ain't here
It's farther down the road
Down in dear old Mississippi
All my folks is there
And colored folks can't come much
Lower than that
My pappy's name is Low
Mr B Low if you please
And he can kiss my mammy without
Bending his knees
So you keep your attic
Take the roof
Or the air if you choose
Just keep your attic
Take the air if you choose
But my mind is out for
Raising with the basement blues
