Subject: Lyr Add: LET ME ROLL YOUR LEMON (Bo Carter)
LET ME ROLL YOUR LEMON
As recorded by Bo Carter, 1935.

Now listen here, sweet baby: I never have been down,
But I can roll you lemon better'n any man in this town.

CHORUS: Baby, please let me roll your lemon
And squeeze it there all night long.
Oh, let me squeeze and roll your lemon,
Babe, until your good juice come.

There's some say your juice is sour; baby, can't you see?
But your juice, baby, is plenty sweet enough for me.

Now just squeeze your lemon, baby, one time.
I b'lieve it'll give me ease, baby, all up there in my min'.

As I come down last night, half past ten,
I want to roll your lemon, baby, soon as I got in.

As I woke up this mornin', half past fo',
I want to roll your lemon, baby, just before I go.
