paroles de chanson Looky, Looky, Yonder / Black Betty / Yellow Women's Doorbells - Leadbelly

Looky looky yonder
Looky looky yonder
Looky looky yonder
Where the sun done gone.

The cap'in' (captain) can't hold 'em (him or them)
Cap'in' can't hold 'em
Cap'in' can't hold 'em
The way I do.

Yes Addie gotta gold mine
Addie gotta gold mine
Addie gotta gold mine
Way above her knee.

Looky looky yonder
Looky looky yonder
Looky looky yonder
Where the sun done gone.

Walking
Walking
Walking
All day long.

Been talking
Been talking
Been talking
Babe, all day long.

Looky looky yonder
Looky looky yonder
Looky looky yonder
Where the sun done gone.

Damn thing gone crazy, Bam da lam
Damn thing gone crazy, Bam da lam

Baby wasn't none of mine, Bam da lam
Baby wasn't none of mine, Bam da lam

Damn thing gone blind, Bam da lam

Last Monday, baby I was arrested

On Tuesday, I was locked up in jail

On Wednesday, my child was attested

On Thursday, here's some mo'

Almost done, here's some mo'(more)
Almost done, here's some mo'
Almost done, And I ain't gonna, ain't done, Last Monday, baby I went a'walking

On Tuesday, I shot me a'dog

On Wednesday, we was sittin' down a'talking

On Thursday, she pawned all of my clothes
