Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got to keep movin'
I got to keep movin'
Blues fallin' down like hail
Blues fallin' down like hail
Hmm, blues fallin' like hail
Blues fallin' down like hail
And they days keepin' on worryin' me
There's a hellhound on my trail
Hellhound on my trail
Hellhound on my trail
[Verse 2]
If today was Christmas Eve
If today was Christmas Eve
And tomorrow was Christmas Day
If today was Christmas Eve
And tomorrow was Christmas Day
Oh, wouldn't we have a time, baby?
All I would need my little sweet rider
Just to pass the time away, huh-uh
To pass the time away
[Verse 3]
You sprinkled hot foot powder, hmm
Hmm, around my door
All  around my door
You sprinkled hot foot powder
All around your daddy door
Hmm-hmm-hmm
It keep me with ramblin' mind, rider
Every old place I go
Every old place I go
[Verse 4]
I can tell the wind is risin'
The leaves tremblin' on the tree
Tremblin' on the tree
I can tell the wind is risin'
Leaves tremblin' on the tree
Hmm-mmm
All I need my little sweet woman
And to keep my company, yeah
My company
