Cakewalk Into Town - Taj Mahal Listen to the recording to learn the syncopation of the lyrics C F I had the blues, so bad one time it put my face in a permanent frown C G Now I'm feeling so much better, I could cakewalk into town C F I woke up this mornin' feelin' so good, you know I laid back down again C G Throw your big leg over me mama, I might not feel this good again C F My baby, oh my baby, I love the way she walks C G And when my girl gets sleepy, I love the way she baby-talks C F My work done got scarce, honey, my work it done got hard, C G I spend my whole day stealin' chickens, mama, from the rich folks yard Whistling - C, F, C, G C F I got the blues, so bad one time it put my face in a permanent frown C G You know I'm feeling so much better, I could cakewalk into town C F I want to go on a picnic in the country, mama, and stay all day C G I don't care if I don't do nothing, just while my time away C F I got the blues so bad one time it put my face in a permanent frown C G You know I'm feelin' so much better I could cakewalk into town
