G7
Talkin' bout Jumping Jim, talkin' bout Mud Slide Slim
D7
Don't you know that a fish got to swim, don't a goose got to fly high?
                                      G7
Little dog got to die, and I'm goin' home

[Chorus]

D7                 G7
Woh, don't you know
D7                 G7
Woh, don't you know

[Verse 2]

G7
Talkin' bout a life on the street, goin' to thinkin' about an itch in my feet
          D7
Can't you hand me down them highway shoes, the Lord knows I'm talking about the walkin' blues
D7                                                G7
Got the rockin' pneumonia blues, and I'm headed home, bye-bye

[Chorus]

D7                G7
Woh, don't you know
D7                G7
Woh, don't you know babe babe

[Bridge]

F7
Listen here now, don't you come round
   G
Talkin' bout over yonder (listen)
F7
Bound to wake up the walkin' man in meC
                  D9
And I'm bound to wanderin', hey now

[Verse 3]

G7
Talkin' all about spoonin' into bone, lookin' just like Sherlock Holmes
D7
Searchin' for a needle in a haystack, seein' and eatin' lots of fatback babe
                                                   G7
Jumpin' about a railroad track, and I'm goin' home goodbye

[Chorus]

D7                G7
Woh, don't you know
D7                G7
Woh, don't you know whoa
D7                G7
Woh, don't you know
D7                                               G7
You ought to know you ought to know you ought to know
D7
You ought to know like a fish in the stream
G7
Ought to know like a leaf on the tree
D7                                  G7
Ought to know like a boat in the sea
