"Big Boss Man" lyrics
(feat. Hope Sandoval)
(originally by Jimmy Reed)
Big boss man
Can you hear me when I call?
Big boss man
Can you hear me when I call?
Oh, you ain't so big
You're just tall, that's all
You got me working, boss man, working 'round the clock
I want me a drink of water but you won't let me stop
Big boss man
Can you hear me when I call?
Oh, you ain't so big
You just tall, that's all
Gonna get myself a boss man, one gonna treat me right
Work him hard in the day time but I'll sure rest easy at night
Big boss man
Can you hear me when I call?
Oh, you ain't so big
You just tall, that's all
Can you hear me when I call?
Big boss man
Can you hear me when I call?
Oh, you ain't so big
You're just tall, that's all
You got me working, boss man, working 'round the clock
I want me a drink of water but you won't let me stop
Big boss man
Can you hear me when I call?
Oh, you ain't so big
You just tall, that's all
Gonna get myself a boss man, one gonna treat me right
Work him hard in the day time but I'll sure rest easy at night
Big boss man
Can you hear me when I call?
Oh, you ain't so big
You just tall, that's all
