Well, old organ
Look a-like you have played your last darn tune
Well, old organ
Look like you have played your last darn tune
Whoever grind yo' legs
Hoo-well-well, didn't stop a bit too soon

Well, old organ
I'm goin' to doctor on you
Well, old organ
I'm gon' doctor on you
But the way your chords you sound this morn'in
Hoo-well, brother now you're doin' nigh throughPeetie Wheatstraw - Old Organ Blues - http://motolyrics.com/peetie-wheatstraw/old-organ-blues-lyrics.html
(piano & sax)

Well, old organ
I think I'll put you on yo' field
Well, old organ
I think I will put you on yo' field
But it will be a long time
Ooo-well-well, befo' you can play this speed

Well, old organ
This is your lonely chance
Well, old organ
This is your only chance
Don't grind no mo'
Hoo-well-well, now just let the monkey dance.

* Chu Berry passed on Oct 31, 1941, a few days after
being injured in an auto accident in Ohio. This track's
recording date says Nov. 25, 1941. So, not likely this
is Chu on sax. At the time he was a member of Cab Calloway's band.
Peetie passed on Dec. 21, 1941 (also from injuries in
a car accident) in St. Louis.
