Thread Name: Lyr/Chords: Papa's on the Housetop (Leroy Carr)
Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Papa's on the housetop
Additional lyrics (there may be more)

The blues they come, the blues they come,
Nobody knows where the blues come from.
The blues they go, the blues they go,
And everybody's happy when the old blues go.

Baby's in the cradle, Sister's gone to town,
Brother's in the parlor [surprised voice] trying on a gown?!
Mama's in the kitchen messin' all around,
Papa's on the housetop and won't come down

No he WONT COME DOWN!
