Picture of Big Walter Horton
Lookin like a bird
rockin back and forth
Flaps his arms as he blows his harp
lookin out cross eyed over a hawk nose
His harp sing Like a bird
Walter at twelve was playin in Handy Park
Recorded with the Memphis Jug Band
in a hotel room in the '30s
had a hit with Sun Records in the '50s
and hit Chicago
Birdlike rockin
he played a whoopin harp
and he was only one in the same league as
Little Walter
Could blow your mind
the nights he felt like it.
