Taj Mahal

Henry Saint Clair Fredericks (born May 17, 1942), who uses the stage name Taj Mahal, is an American Grammy Award winning blues musician. He often incorporates elements of world music into his music. A self-taught singer-songwriter and film composer who plays the guitar, banjo and harmonica (among many other instruments), Mahal has done much to reshape the definition and scope of blues music over the course of his almost 50 year career by fusing it with nontraditional forms, including sounds from the Caribbean, Africa and the South Pacific. more »

I met a pretty little girl
Walking down the avenue
He said hell old Sonny
Can I come home with you?
We're gonna rock the house tonight
Everything will be alright

Hooray, hooray
The woman is killing me
Hooray, hooray
The woman is killing me
If you don't believe it
Wait right here and see

Yeah, now we walk till midnight
Rock till the break of dawn
Yeah, we dance till midnight
Rocking till the break of dawn
Won't you cool down?
Sonny gonna keep you warm

Oh, baby, it's five o'clock
What you gonna do?
Yeah, it's five o'clock
Oh, what you gonna do?
I don't care, I've been hurting
I'm gon' leave it up to you
And that's when I told her

Hooray, hooray
The woman is killing me
Hooray, hooray
The woman is killing me
If you don't believe it
Wait right here and see (wait a while longer)

I'm gonna lock this door
And throw that key away
Yes, I'm gonna lock the door
And throw that key away
I ain't coming home
I stay right here all day

And I told her, hooray, hooray
The woman is killing me
Hooray, hooray
The woman is killing me
If you don't believe it
Just wait right here and see (let's do that again I like it)

Hooray, hooray
The woman is killing me
Hooray, hooray
The woman is killing me
If you don't believe it
Wait right here and see
