lyrics

4. "CANNED HEAT BLUES" 5:25
(Tommy Johnson)

When I'm walking in the morning I see canned heat* on my mind
Woked up this morning, I see canned heat on my mind
Woked up this morning with the canned heat on my mind

My mama, my mama crying canned heat killing me

Mama cryin, mama crying, it's killing me
Canned heat don't kill me, you know I'll never die


Oh my mama cryin', canned heat killing me
Brownskin women don't do the easy roll
That's why canned heat is round my bed
I woked up this morning canned heat round my bed

When I woked up this morning canned heat round my bed
Run here somebody, run here somebody
Take this blues away, take my blues away
Brownskin women don't do the easy roll

Canned heat, don't kill me, you know I'll never die
Canned heat, don't kill me, you know I'll never die
Canned heat, don't kill me, you know I'll never die


a particularly lethal drink which was obtained by extracting the alcohol from solidified methylated spirits which was sold as a fuel for outdoor cooking. Canned heat could be bought from street dealers who had made a business out of this process during the prohibition era.
