Grinder Man Blues

Grinder Man Blues - Memphis Slim/The Golden Gate Quartet

My name is Memphis Slim

They call me the Grinder Man

My name is Memphis Slim

They call me the Grinder Man

If you be my customer

I'll let you have it on an easy plan

I do my rambling at midnight

And I don't be seen in the day

I do my rambling at midnight

I don't be seen in the day

While everything is quiet an easy

Mr Grinder can have his way

I got so many customers

It takes me a week to get around

I got so many customers

It takes me a week to get around

But you need not be uneasy baby

Mr Grinder won't let you down

Well alright then

Every tip of the tray

You'll find that the grinder

Play it to you this way

Well I'm gonna play these blues

Till I see Miss Ora Lee

She's my special customer

Yes yes yes yes yes

If you wanna see me baby

You better see me while you can

You wanna see me baby

You had better see me while you can

Because I'm a very busy fella

You know they call me the Grinder Man
