Way down South, off the county road Theres a one room shack where all the little creatures go When the sun goes down You can watch them come from miles around When the band sang out they all start to jump and shout They'll shake when they wanna shake and crawl when they wanna crawl Shake when they wanna shake And if the house falls down you know it don't matter at all Now everybody move, twisting at the hip Take it down to the floor and bring it right back again They don't care about the sun Just the beating of a drum Something with a back beat they can get down to They'll shake when they wanna shake Crawl when they wanna crawl Shake when they wanna shake And if the house falls down you know it don't matter at all

Lord I work all the time, think I'm gone lose my mind She takes me by the hand Baby lets me know that I'm her man Don't need no Need no heater Need no heater by my bed Need no Need no heater Woman I got she's cherry red They way you cut your eyes damn near makes me wanna die But when I kiss your lips puts me into fits Don't need no Need no heater Need no heater by my bed Need no Need no heater Woman I got she's cherry red

Make that money, you gotta make that money You gotta make that money or they're sure to find someone who will You know I wake up every morning before the suns in the sky I work 18 hours come home and I die Just enough time to have a smoke and some gin and I was up in the morning and do it again I work 18 hours aint nothin to show, 'cept a worn out backend shoe full of holes Money I earned is already gone, but I gotta keep this train just rollin along Chorus Now that boss man of mine about as mean as they get He's got fire in his eyes and nails in his spit Kick you when your down, you can bet that he will Got a heart that's made outta Birmingham steel I can't wait till I hear that shift whistle blow And Ill leave this place runnin just fast as I can go Woman and a dog waitin on me at home I"ve been in this place for way too long Chorus

Trouble when I wake up Trouble when I sleep Got a cloud of worry and woe hangin over me Lord I need some easing I've got such a worried mind What can I do with these frustration blues I seem to have them all the time Everything you see starts to creep up on you Feel the evil eye in the dark lock on you Everything's a ghoul when your caught up in your mind I can't sleep, fevered in my dreams Sweat just a rollin down My poor head won't rest until Im dead Cold and layin' in the ground Lord I need some easing Ive got such a worried mind What can I do with these frustration blues I seem to have them all the time Everything you see starts to creep up on you Feel the evil eye in the dark lock on you Everything a should when your caught up in your mind
