Well, i'm that walkin' ground hog
Mama, an i walks through 'round in my den
Now, i'm that walkin' ground hog
Mama, an i walks around in my den
Now, an if i come out 'n see my shadow
John, i believe i'll go back in

Now, an i want some feedin' mama, you hear
So i can hear her high sound
If you don't feed me, baby
I believe i'll go back in the ground

Because i'm that walkin' ground hog
Mama an i walks through 'round in my den
Now, if i come out 'n see my shadow
You say you don't love me
I believe i'll go back in

Now, an i wanna hear some swingin' music
I wanna hear a fats waller sound, yeah
Now, if i start to jitterbuggin'
I will leave my hole down in the ground

Because i'm just a-walkin' groundhog
Man, an i walks through 'round in my den
Now, if i come out and see my shadow
My woman don't love me
I believe i'll go back in

(harmonica & instrumental)

Ah, you know, i'm goin' walk a while'd

Now, an i need some pettin', baby
Baby, you know what i mean
Now, if a-you don't pet me, baby
I believe i'll go back down in new orleans

Because i'm that walkin' groundhog
Night i walks around in my den
Now, if i come out and see my shadow
My woman don't love me
Yeah, an' i believe i'll go back in.
