LITTLE RED HEN BLUES
(Taj Mahal)
On this list people tend to call that song "Long Gone.” It's called "Little Red Rooster,” that it is traditional, and that it was recorded by Taj Mahal backed by the Pointer Sisters long ago. I believe Taj Mahal calls his version "Little Red Hen Blues" and himself the writer. I'm sure it has gone through numerous transformative stages, lyrics-wise, as blues songs tend to do.
Little Red Hen Blues
Well the little red hen said to the little red rooster
Why don't you come 'round here like you used to
Long gone, long gone
Like a wild old turkey through the corn
Been up north, I been down south
To the east, the west, back again
Long gone, long gone
Like a wild old turkey through the corn
You can take my potatoes they're nice and brown
Stick 'em in the oven, turn the damper down
Long gone, long gone
Like a wild old turkey through the corn
Men don't like me 'cause I speak my mind
Women crazy 'bout me cause I take my time
Long gone, long gone
Like a wild old turkey through the corn
Well the little red hen said to the little red rooster
Why don't you come 'round here like you used to,
Long gone, long gone
Like a wild old turkey through the corn
