Mill Man Blues Lyrics & Chords By Two Poor Boys

My daddy left me with this mill an hour-and-a-half ago
My daddy left me with this mill, hour-and-a-half ago
Says, "Don't be uneasy, son. You ain't got nowheres to go."

Yonder comes a woman with a sack of corn on her back
Yond' comes a woman with a sack of corn on her back
I'm going to stick around here, try to keep her from carryin' it back

I'm gonna stick around here, and I'm gonna just try to keep her from carryin' it back

Now, pretty mama, tell me, how you want your grindin' done
Tell me, mama, how you want your grindin' done
"I want it fixed up, baby, just like your daddy done."

I ain't no mill man, baby, I'm just the mill man's son
I ain't no mill man, just the mill man's son
But I can do your grindin', baby, 'til the mill man comes

Now, do you see that spider, climbin' on up the wall?
Do you see that spider, climbin' on up the wall?
He's goin' up the wall, baby, get his ashes hauled
