John Lee Hooker – Crawlin' Black Spider lyrics

(John Lee Hooker)

Crawlin' black spider baby, and I rules my den
I'm a crawlin' black spider baby, and I rules my den
Don't want you around my mate, want you'self for myself1

You know you caught me crawlin' baby when the, when the grass was very high
I'm just gonna keep on crawlin' baby, until the day I die,
Because I'm a crawlin' black spider baby, and I rules my den
Don't want you around my mate, wanna use her for myself1
Yeah, play the blues now!
Hmm, ahw-ahw, ahw-ahw, ahw-ahw
Shu' now baby, shu' now darlin'

You know I'm gon' crawl up to your window baby,
Wanna crawl up on your floor, you got anything I want baby,
Wanna crawl up on your floor
Because I'm a crawlin' black spider baby, and I rules my den
Don't want you hangin' around my mate, wanna use her for myself1
