A.K.A. "Cocaine Habit Blues"
Take a whiff on me
Take a whiff on me
An ev'rybody takes a whiff on me
An-a-ho-oh, baby take a whiff on me
When I'm married
Gonna call me a lie
Gotta a whiff for my baby
That she can't get higher
And-a ho-oh, baby take a whiff on me
When I'm married
Gonna buy me a rope
And buy a whiff for my baby
Just because I love her
It's so-oh, baby take a whiff on me
Take a whiff on me
Take a whiff on me
An e'rybody takes a whiff on me
An-a ho-oh, baby take a whiff on me
I got a berry that's sweeter than juice
Take this brown-skin woman
For my partic-alicar use
I said now, oh-ho, baby take a whiff on me
Chew my tobacca, spittin' my juice
But I love my baby
Just a-can't even let ya loose
I said now, ho-oh, baby take a whiff on me
Take a whiff on me
Take a whiff on me
And e'rybody takes a whiff on me
It's-a-ho-ho, baby take a whiff on me
Walked up Ellum
And I comed down Main
Couldn't bum a nickel
Just to buy cocaine
An-a-ho-oh, baby take a whiff on me
Take somethin'
Gonna make your mind ting-a-ling
Two bars a-coke, can't find my nickels
An-a ho-oh, baby take a whiff on me
Take a whiff on me
Take a whiff on me
And ev'rybody takes a whiff on me
And-a-ho-oh, baby take a whiff on me
You'll take Sally
And I'll take Sue
It's a mighty little difference
And they be swingin' soon
She said, 'Now ho-ller, baby take a whiff on me'
You'll take Sally
And I'd take Jane
They both good lookin'
But they ain't just the same
An-a-ho-oh, baby take a whiff on me
Whiff-a-ree, an-a whiff-a-rye
Gotta keep on whiffin' until I die
An-a-ho-oh, baby take a whiff on me
(Take a whiff on me)
Cocaine for horses, not for men
Doctor said it kill ya
But he don't says when
An-a ho-oh, baby take a whiff on me

Old Crow Medicine Show used this tune in their Chorus of "Cocaine Habit", and now i understand why. Its a great song :)

King of the 12-string indeed.

He looks happy!

Lyric correction: "Tell you something, make you mighty tickled." Rhymes with nickel.
I've spent most of my life listening to Leadbelly & Blind Willie McTell, and I'm pretty old.
