I Smell a Rat

I Smell a Rat - Big Mama Thornton

I smell a rat baby

I smell a rat baby

You'd better watch out

I smell a rat baby

You won't tell me where you been

Whiskey running all down your chin

I smell a rat baby

I smell a rat baby

You'd better watch out

I smell a rat baby

You come stumbling down the hall

Bump your head up against the wall

Knock down drunk that ain't all

I know you been having yourself a ball

I smell a rat baby

I smell a rat baby

You'd better watch out

I smell a rat baby

I smell a little rat come on get off the house

You'd better catch up with

Some of those rats baby

Cuz I smell it

Ah I know you ain't nothing

But a old big ole' warf rat

Ahh you'd better watch those rats

Running under your foot boy

They're gonna get ya

Ah I smell a rat
