Lyrics
I never did feel uneasy, I know how you left your tricks
I never did feel uneasy, I know how you left your tricks
You leave town today and it's ten
days, you've got your business well fixed
I wonder if the chinches bite in
Beaumont, oh, like they do in Beale Street town
I wonder if chinches bite in
Beaumont, like they do in Beale Street town
The first night I stayed in Memphis, chinch bugs turned my bed around
I had to get 'ceitful with the bedbugs,
to keep the chinches from takin' my life
I had to get 'ceitful with the bedbugs,
to keep the chinches from takin' my life
Because the chinches got my number, wrote three letters to my wife
My wife caught me easin', way across that rich gal's room
I said my wife caught me easin', way across that rich gal's room
The next time I go to slip out,
I ain't gonna leave on the light anymore
My wife has quit me, and my rich pigmeat gal is too
I say my wife has quit me, and my rich pigmeat gal is too
Oh, Lord, I'm lyin' in this cold bed
alone, scared with the chinch bug blues
