Thread Name: Lyr Req: Rabbit Foot Blues (Blind Lemon Jefferson)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Rabbit Foot Blues (Blind Lemon)
Lemon sings "Blue jumped a rabbit," not "Blues jumped a rabbit."
Compare e.g. the "Old Blue jumped the rabbit and they running one solid mile" that Booker White recalled Charlie Patton sang and "Old Blue Jumped A Rabbit" by Mose Vinson.
