James Booker - Junco Partner - Live, Version Three lyrics
Artist: James Booker
album: A Taste of Honey: Live In New Orleans, 1977
Down in the bayou, we used to do this all the time
Sometimes we still do
Down in Louisiana
Well we got a girl named Mo Johanna
She said
Down the road come a Junco partner right now
Boy was loaded, he was loaded, loaded as can be
He was knocked out, knocked out, knocked out loaded, right now
He was singing, singing, singing this song to me
He was singing, singing, was singing this song to me
Singing six months, six months, well it ain't no sentence, nah, nah
I know one year, know one year, well it ain't no time
They got boys, I know boys down in Angola
Serving one year, one year, one year to ninety-nine
I said one year, one year, well a one year to ninety-nine
If I had, if I had a billion dollars, just one billion
I wanna tell ya, let me tell ya, let me tell ya what I could do
I could buy, I could buy land around Angola
I'd grow me a marijuana farm until 1992
I said a marijuana farm until 1992
I want whiskey, whiskey, whiskey when I'm thirsty
Oh I want, I want a little water, 'lil water, 'lil water
Water when I'm dry
I want my lover, my lover, well when I'm lonely, right now
And a little heroine, a little heroine long before I die
And a little cocaine, cocaine, baby on the side, on the side
Said a little cocaine, cocaine, baby on the side, right now
I want a little taste of heroine long before I die
Down the road, down the road
Woah, come a Junco partner, partner, a partner
Knocked out, knocked out, knocked out loaded
Was a loaded, was loaded, was loaded
Down the road, down the road
Woah, come a Junco partner right now
Sometimes we still do
Down in Louisiana
Well we got a girl named Mo Johanna
She said
Down the road come a Junco partner right now
Boy was loaded, he was loaded, loaded as can be
He was knocked out, knocked out, knocked out loaded, right now
He was singing, singing, singing this song to me
He was singing, singing, was singing this song to me
Singing six months, six months, well it ain't no sentence, nah, nah
I know one year, know one year, well it ain't no time
They got boys, I know boys down in Angola
Serving one year, one year, one year to ninety-nine
I said one year, one year, well a one year to ninety-nine
If I had, if I had a billion dollars, just one billion
I wanna tell ya, let me tell ya, let me tell ya what I could do
I could buy, I could buy land around Angola
I'd grow me a marijuana farm until 1992
I said a marijuana farm until 1992
I want whiskey, whiskey, whiskey when I'm thirsty
Oh I want, I want a little water, 'lil water, 'lil water
Water when I'm dry
I want my lover, my lover, well when I'm lonely, right now
And a little heroine, a little heroine long before I die
And a little cocaine, cocaine, baby on the side, on the side
Said a little cocaine, cocaine, baby on the side, right now
I want a little taste of heroine long before I die
Down the road, down the road
Woah, come a Junco partner, partner, a partner
Knocked out, knocked out, knocked out loaded
Was a loaded, was loaded, was loaded
Down the road, down the road
Woah, come a Junco partner right now
