Let me tell you bout the time
I had the hard luck blues
Down so low I had nothing to lose
I had to shake em,
shake them hard luck blues
So I got me a guitar and a microphone
Ten records later the blues were gone
I had to shake em,
shake them hard luck blues
Shake em high, shake em low
Shake em everywhere you go
You gotta shake em,
shake them hard luck blues
Shake em up and make em shout
Flip em over and shake em out
You gotta shake em,
shake them hard luck blues
Tell you bout the time I bought an automobile
Had four good tires and three good wheels
You gotta shake em,
shake them hard luck blues
Push in the key, pull out the choke
Step on the gas and go for broke
You gotta shake em,
shake them hard luck blues
Shake em once, shake em twice
Shake em like a pair o dice
You gotta shake em,
shake them hard luck blues
Shake em hard and shake em quick
Shake em honey, thats the trick
You gotta shake em,
shake them hard luck blues
Two individuals sittin in the shade
Each one wishin the other was a maid
Heh wouldnt that be nice
Two individuals laying in bed
One rolled over to the other and said
You gotta shake em,
You gotta shake em right now!
Shake em low, shake em high
Shake em till you shake em dry
You gotta shake em,
shake them hard luck blues
Shake em up and shake em down
Shake em out to the edge of town
You gotta shake em,
shake them hard luck blues
Shake em out and shake em in
Shake em till you make em grin
You gotta shake em,
shake them hard luck blues
Shake em high, shake em low
Shake em till its time to go
You gotta shake em,
