HELLHOUND ON MY TRAIL
by Robert Johnson

You sprinkled hot foot powder, mmm
mmm, around my door
All around my door
You sprinkled hot foot powder
All around your daddy’s door, hmm hmm hmm
It keep me with ramblin’ mind, rider
Every old place I go
Every old place I go

Cayenne Pepper Ground
Stinging Nettle Ground

Sulphur
Black Mustard Seed
Black Pepper

Grind these three together.
