Oozing Cyst Blues


Woke up this morning and I'll tell you the news,
Looked down at my cyst and it began to ooze,
Lord, Lord, talkin' 'bout my oozing cyst,
Old Man Devil got me on his list

Went to the laundry, tried to get my clothes dry
But that cyst began to oozing and I don't know why,
Lord, Lord, talkin' 'bout my oozing cyst,
Old Man Devil got me on his list.

Went to the diner to get me a steak
But that poor little cyst just began to ache,
Lord, Lord, talkin' 'bout my oozing cyst,
Old Man Devil got me on his list.

Went to the preacher, asked him what to do,
He said, "boy, that cyst is gonna follow you!"
Lord, Lord, talkin' 'bout my oozing cyst,
Old Man Devil got me on his list.

So I headed for the barroom, feelin' kind of pissed,
That liquor took my blues but it left my cyst,
Lord, Lord, talkin' 'bout my oozing cyst,
Old Man Devil got me on his list.

So lookie here, Mama, what you want me to do?
Love me and my oozing cyst will ooze for you,
Lord, Lord, talkin' 'bout my oozing cyst,
Old Man Devil got me on his list.
