I can t get rid of these darn old bedbugs, it seems.
I can t get rid of these darn old bedbugs, it seems.
Soon as I go to bed, bedbugs is on my dreams.

A-nibblin , and a-gnawin , crawlin and a-chawin on me.
A-nibblin , and a-gnawin , crawlin and a-chawin on me.
There ain t no sausage grinder, busy as a bedbug can be.

I seen a thousand bedbugs marchin , comin to me two by two.
I seen a thousand bedbugs marchin , comin to me two by two.
I grabbed my hat and my britches, let them bedbugs have my shoes.

I saw generals and colonels, captains with the regiment.
I saw generals and colonels, captains with the regiment.
A regular bedbug army, I know em by that bedbug scent.

Ev ry thing was a nightmare, you can call it a dream if you choose.
The thing was a nightmare, you can call it a dream if you choose.
I never seen such bedbugs, when I had those bedbug dream blues.
