Well, old organ
|
Look like you have played your last darn tune

Hoo-well-well, didn't stop a bit too soon
|
|
Well, old organ
|
I'm goin' to doctor on you
|
Well, old organ

But the way your chords you sound this morn'in

Hoo-well, brother now you're doin' nigh through
|

|
Well, old organ

I think I'll put you on yo' field
|
Well, old organ

I think I will put you on yo' field
|
But it will be a long time
|
Ooo-well-well, befo' you can play this speed

Well, old organ

This is your lonely chance

Well, old organ

This is your only chance
|
Don't grind no mo'

Hoo-well-well, now just let the monkey dance.

* Chu Berry passed on Oct 31, 1941, a few days after
|
being injured in an auto accident in Ohio. This track's
|
recording date says Nov. 25, 1941. So, not likely this
|
is Chu on sax. At the time he was a member of Cab Calloway's band.
|
Peetie passed on Dec. 21, 1941 (also from injuries in
|
a car accident) in St. Louis.
