Lightnin’ Hopkins
Ain’t It Crazy (The Rub) (Live at Fox Theatre, St. Louis, MO, March 18, 1971)
[Verse 1]
Well, mama got the rub board, sister got the tub
They're going around doing the rub-de-rub

[Chorus]
Ain't it crazy? Ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thang

[Verse 2]
Two old maids, they was layin' up in a bed
One turned over and this is what she said

[Chorus]
Ain't it crazy? Ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thang

[Verse 3]
Yes, mama killed a chicken and thought it was a duck
Laid him on the table with his feet sticking up

[Chorus]
Ain't it crazy? Tried to get next to one, you know
Ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thang

[Harmonica solo]
[Verse 4]
Well, mama got the rub board and sister got the tub
They're going around doing the rub-de-rub

[Chorus]
Ain't it crazy? Ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thang

[Verse 5]
Mama killed a chicken now, she thought it was a duck
Laid him on the table with his feet sticking up

[Chorus]
Ain't it crazy now? You don't cook a duck like that now
Ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thang

[Harmonica solo]

[Verse 6]
Two old maids, thеy was layin' in a bed
One turned ovеr and this is what she said

[Chorus]
Ain't it crazy? Ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thang
[Harmonica solo]

[Verse 7]
Yeah, now, mama had the sister, sister had the tub
They're going around doing the rub-de-rub

[Chorus]
Ain't it crazy? Ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thang

[Outro]
