Levee Camp Man Blues

歌詞

These contractors, they are getting so slack These contractors, they are getting so slack They'll pay you half of your money and hold the other half back There ain't but two men that get paid off There ain't but two men that get paid off That's the commissary clerk and the walking boss I see somebody coming down to the water trough I see somebody coming down to the water trough I know it ain't the contractor, it's that doggone walking boss A levee camp mule and a levee camp man A levee camp mule and a levee camp man They work side by side, and it sure is man for man A levee camp man ain't got but two legs you know A levee camp man ain't got but two legs you know But he puts in the same hours that a mule do on four I wouldn't drive no four-mule team I wouldn't drive no four-mule team For no doggone contractor I've ever seen Men on the levee hollering "Whoa Haw Gee" Men on the levee hollering "Whoa Haw Gee" And the women on the levee camp hollering "Who wants me?"
