20 Aug 03 - 08:31 PM (#1005570) Subject: Lyr Req: If You Let A Man Kick You Once From: ddw I've recently found a fine album by Corey Harris and Henry Butler with a song they co-wrote called "If You Let A Man Kick You Once" that I'd love to sing, but even after repeated tries (even with slowed tape) I can't catch some words. If anybody has the words in their entirety, I'd really appreciate you filling in the blanks. First verse: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX the Bible too Turn right around and put a hex on you. Fourth verse: My jelly drinks no water, only whiskey or gin Try to rock my XXXXXXX, kick your front teeth in Sixth verse: Got a nasty little pit bull, XXXXXXXXXXXX You try to kick my pit, XXXXXXXXXX Any help much appreciated..... cheers, david |

Found lots of its on the song, but none with the lyrics. I'm still trying with the slowed tape, too, but so far I just can't catch them. cheers, david |

Sixth verse: Got a nasty little pit bull, fuzzy little snout You try it kick my pit, he'll bite your butt cheeks out. Not sure if that's right, but that's what I hear! |
