Little Walter

Hey, little Walter (Hey, little Walter)

Hey, little Walter, listen

Hey, little Walter

Something's gonna getcha, little Walter

Had myself a roommate and Walter was his name

He liked to play strange games

He had a certain hobby he always loved to do

He thought it was so cool

He started making money but couldn't pay the rent

It didn't make much sense

So I tried to ask him nicely when he planned to pay

He said, "I doubt it'd be today"

Hey, little Walter

Hey, little Walter, listen

Hey, little Walter

Something's gonna getcha, little Walter

He started coming up with clothes I could not buy

And some I could not find

Taking girls to dinner, two at a time

I didn't pay no mind

When I saw him driving a brand new fancy car

I knew he'd gone too far

So when I tried again to ask him could he pay today

Walter said, "Today? No way"

Hey, little Walter

Hey, little Walter, listen

Hey, little Walter

Something's gonna getcha, little Walter

Things start getting serious, I had to set him straight

My landlord could not wait

So I sat him down and told him, "Don't play me for no fool

'Cause, 'cause I know the things you do"

Things start getting nasty, we broke into a fight

I thought it would be short, but it lasted half the night

By the time we were finished, there was a knock at the door

When Walter went to open it, he was blown to the floor

I said now, hey, little Walter

Hey, little Walter, listen

Hey, little Walter

Something's gonna getcha, little Walter

Hey, little Walter

Hey, little Walter, listen

Hey, little Walter (Little Walter)

Something's gonna getcha, little Walter

Hey, little Walter

Hey, little Walter, listen (Oh, listen, listen, listen, Walter)

Hey, little Walter (Ooh-ooh)

Something's gonna getcha, little Walter

Hey, little Walter

Hey, little Walter, listen

Hey, little Walter

Something's gonna getcha, little Walter
