Woh Dont You Know

Words & Music by James Taylor Daniel Kortchmar and Leland Sklar from James Tayor’s 1972 album "One Man Dog." [Verse 1] Talkin’ bout Jumping Jim talkin’ bout Mud Slide Slim Don’t you know that a fish got to swim don’t a goose got to fly high? Little dog got to die and I’m goin’ home [Chorus] Woh don’t you know Woh don’t you know [Verse 2] Talkin’ bout a life on the street goin’ to thinkin’ about an itch in my feet Can’t you hand me down them highway shoes the Lord knows I’m talking about the walkin’ blues Got the rockin’ pneumonia blues and I’m headed home bye-bye [Chorus] Woh don’t you know Woh don’t you know babe babe [Bridge] Listen here now don’t you come round Talkin’ bout over yonder (listen) Bound to wake up the walkin’ man in meC And I’m bound to wanderin’ hey now [Verse 3] Talkin’ all about spoonin’ into bone lookin’ just like Sherlock Holmes Searchin’ for a needle in a haystack seein’ and eatin’ lots of fatback babe Jumpin’ about a railroad track and I’m goin’ home goodbye [Chorus] Woh don’t you know Woh don’t you know whoa Woh don’t you know You ought to know you ought to know you ought to know You ought to know like a fish in the stream Ought to know like a leaf on the tree Ought to know like a boat in the sea
