LEMON TREE BLUES

Out in my backyard,

I got some juicy lemon tree.

I'm gon' get me some sweet mama,

Sqeeze fresh lemon in my tea.

When it's early in the momin',

Mama, it's lemon sqeezin' time.

Honey, add me lotsa sugar,

And make it taste so fine.

My mama rolls my biscuits,

Some sweetbread nice and hot.


Don't forget to sqeeze fresh lemon,

From that lemon tree I got.

She's my fine lemon sqeezer,

Never sqeeze no fruits but mine.

She keeps my water boilin',

To serve my cup of tea in time.

But someday, someday,

My baby done gone dead on me.

Now I'm standin' here, lookin',

At my lonesome lemon tree.
