Southern Rag - Blind Blake

Now we goin' on the ol' Southern Rag

Way out there on that cotton field

Where them people plant all that rice with sugarcane

And peas and so forth grew

Aye man I want a match from you

To light my pipe yeah

Go on ol' Geechie

I ain't studyin' 'bout you

No I know you're here to study me now

Soon as you get my rice I bet you study me then

Bet you that

Just meet me at the end of the row now

I'll show you how to pick this cotton

Or you can dig potato either one

I strip more rows of sugar cane

Than you strip in ten years

Now we gon' do the dance now

It's called the Geechie Dance

Imma give you some music

It's called the Geechie music now

That's my gal get away from him damn

I'm gon' havin' to reckon

Gon' shake 'em everywhere but loose

You better get that thing fixed just like this now

I'm gon' stop
