Songtexte My Feet Jumped Salty - Washboard Sam

The hookin' cow
Spoke about the little young heifer
The buckin' bull, says
'I just now left her'

Then the cow jumps salty
Now, because it was against her rules
Now, if you think that she liked it
Hoo-well, you just a black-eyed fool

The little *Guinea rooster
Told the little Guinea hen
If I ever catch you squattin'
Around my nest again

I will have to jump salty
Lord, 'cause it went against my rules
Now, if you think that he liked it
Hoo-well, you just a black-eyed fool

'Beat it out, boys'

(Instrumentals & guitar)

'He another black-eyed fool - hahaha'

'My, my, my'

Now, two old womens
Are runnin' hand in hand
The one found out
The other one had her man

Then that woman jumped salty
Lord, 'cause it was against her rules
Now, if you think that she liked it
Hoo-well, you just a black-eyed fool

I was chattin' with a girl
In the wrong place
A man cocked a pistol
Right in my face

Then my feets jumped salty
Now, 'cause it was against his rules
Now, if you think that I liked it
Hoo-well, you just a black-eyed fool.

*Guinea Hens, originated in Africa and aren't chickens.
They are Guinea Fowl, some are white, some are dark
Some have flecks like polka-dots.
