House Rent Boggie-John Lee Hooker

It's the house rent boogie

I come home last Friday

I will tell the little woman that I lost my job

She says don't confront me an' so I have my rent next Friday

I come home next Friday come

I didn't have the rent an' out the door I went

I'm going right towards the streets over here

Thinking I'll get this rent together

'Cause I can't seem to even move it and I know

I got this rent together

Now

Let's get on back and have a ball

Nah

Let's boogie awhile
