Dave Van Ronk – Bed Bug Blues

Dave Van Ronk – Bed Bug Blues Lyrics

Artist: Dave Van Ronk
Song: Bed Bug Blues

Bed bug is mean and evil
Don’t mean me no good
Bed bug is mean and evil
Don’t mean me no good

Thinks he’s a woodpecker
My poor body’s a piece of wood
Bed bug’s as big as a jackass
Will bite you and stand and grin

Bed bug’s as big as a jackass
Will bite you and stand and grin
You know they’ll tell the other bed bugs
It’s dinner time better all begin

I go to bed at night
And I wonder how a poor boy can sleep
I go to bed at night
I wonder how a poor boy can sleep

One is holding my hands
While the other’s is bitin my feet
I pace the floor at night
I’m so tired I’m bout to drop dead

I pace the floor at night
I’m so tired I’m bout to drop dead
You know the damn little bed bugs
Won’t let me get into bed

Son, they was moanin in the corner
While I was tryin to sleep
Son, they was moanin in the corner
While I was tryin to sleep

It was a bed bug mother praying
Lord, get my children more to eat
I got myself a wishbone
These bugs they got my goat

I got myself a wishbone
These bugs they got my goat
You know, I wish every one of them
Would cut their own g#dd#mn throat

Bed bug is mean and evil
Don’t mean me no good
Bed bug is mean and evil
Don’t mean me no good

Thinks he’s a woodpecker
My poor body’s a piece of wood
