Poison Ivy Lyrics & Chords By Willie Mabon

Now cat, don’t touch that gal there please
You’ll get wasted, down to your knees
Now I don’t like to brag,
I don’t like to say what I do
But I’m like poison ivy,
I’ll break out all over you
Everyday when I shave, wearin’ my house coat
Two men have to hold me or I’ll cut my throat
Well I bought me a blade, one that I could afford
Too long to be a knife, and too short to be a sword
Last night some cat got smart with my niece
Now he wears a sign sayin’ “rest in peace”
Now I don’t claim to be bad, don’t claim to be strong
I just like to keep bad people from doing me wrong
