"Dust My Broom" by Howlin Wolf, Hubert Sumlin, and Eddie Shaw.

Howlin Wolf version differs from the original, which was recorded in the mid 30's. The contrast is amusing.

Originally a Robert Johnson recording. According to Wikipedia's contributors, the song's lyrics reflect the loneliness of a man feeling betrayed and in search of a woman.[1]

He describes his experience,

I don't want no woman wants every downtown man she meets.
and what he is going to do:

And I'm gettin' up in the morning, I believe I'll dust my broom,
I'm gettin' up in the morning, I believe I'll dust my broom,
Girl friend, the black man you been loving', girl friend, can get my room.
I'm gonna call up China, see is my good girl over there.
I can't find her on Philippines Islands, she must be in Ethiopia somewhere.

    yes this song jams to the max

  • It's not Eddie Shaw but J.T. Brown on sax.

  • I would definitely boff Hillary. She is one hot lady. Spread those legs baby, and let my rod fill your hole honey!

  • Saw on a Documentary Wolf played with Robert Johnson on stage. Man how cool it must have been.

  • VERY GOOD

  • Great recording by three talented musicians of one of the best blues songs ever.

  • all the candidates suck, as does bipartisan politics b/c the parties have monopolies on issues and you never know what anyone stands for anymore; however hillary is worst by far and i agree that we're not a democracy and we are indeed run by the elitists that contribute to their party of choice, forcing the politicians to subscribe to the elitist views instead of the public at large; we need change but how? don't know why you posted that on this vid; this song does indeed jam to the max
