Chinch Bug Blues Lyrics

I never feel uneasy : I know how you love your tricks
You leave town the spate of ten days : you got your
business well fixed

I wonder if the chinches bite in Beaumont : bite like
they do in Beale Street town
The first night I stayed in Memphis : chinch bugs turned
my bed around

I had to get sinful with the bedbugs : to keep the
chinches from taking my life Because the chinches got my number : wrote a letter to my
wife

My wife caught me easing : way across that Richland Road
The next time I go to slip out : I ain't going to leave
on the light anymore

My wife has quit me : and my best pigmeat gal has too
All of *Lord* : here with the chinch bug blues
