La La Blues

Pokey LaFarge

Key of A · Chords: I IV V

Verse 1

A                       E7
I know that you’ve heard
D                         D7
this old song sung before,
A
but you ain’t heard it
E7
while I was walking out the door

Verse 2

It’s goodbye baby,
honey your time has come,
I’ve turned the tables
and now you’re the one on the bum

Chorus

It’s La La La,
I’m singing La La La
I’m so happy I’m singing La La La

Verse 3

If I was a catfish
in the river down in St. Louie,
I’d be the biggest fish, honey
anyone had ever seen

Verse 4

You know I’d never get caught
cause I never bite the hook and line,
all the women try and catch me
as I go swimming by

Chorus

I’m wet and I’m wild,
honey, I’m short and thin
so I can squeeze out of any position
you try and put me in

Verse 5

I’ve got this old thing
called the laughing hearts disease,
I’m gonna laugh my way to
any old place I please
