I'm Mad Again - John Lee Hooker

I had a friend one time

At least I thought I did

Taken that man in my house

Give him my food over my table

That I couldn’t afford

He come to me, he said

«Johnny, ain’t got no place to stay»

I said, «Yes, man, come to my house»

I get you a place to stay, and a bed to sleep in

That I couldn’t afford

When I found out you with my wife

Now I’m mad, like Al Capone

Well, I warned you one time

Next time I warn you

I’m gonna use my gun on you

'Cause I’m mad with you

I’m mad with you, like Al Capone

Look, man, I told you one time before

But this time I’m gonna teach you

A little lesson you won’t forget

Take this man right down by the riverside

I might drown you

I might shoot you

I don’t know

Gonna tie your hands, gonna tie your feet

Gag you so you can’t talk to nobody

I’m mad, I’m mad with you

You’re sinkin';

I’m mad
