Title: Black Rat Swing
Artist: Orginally Memphis Minnie (also performed by Cephas & Wiggins)
Tebbed by: Lee (Using Guitar Pro 4)

This is another classic delta style blues peice, like the other one I submitted,
its played alot faster, and also has a harmonica playing along with it, but nonetheless
its a decent peice to play, relatively easy once you get the nack. Its a standard 12 bar
blues using the E, A, and B7 chords, so Stick around those and it'll make playing alot
easier..

Lryics

I got rats in my kitchen, I got rats in my bed.
In the mornin' I eat breakfast rats in my bread.
You're just one black rat.
Someday I'm gonna catch your trail.
Im gonna hide my shoe somewhere beneath your shirt-tail.

When you told me you loved me
You done told me a lie,
But still I love you girl until the day I die.
You're just one black rat
Sineday I'm gonna catch your trail,
Gonna hide my shoes
Somewhere beneath your shirt-tail.
