Charley Patton (between April 1887 and 1891 – April 28, 1934), also known as Charlie Patton, was an American Delta blues musician. He is considered by many to be the "Father of the Delta Blues", and is credited with creating an enduring body of American music and personally inspiring just about every Delta blues man (Palmer, 1995).

I'm not sure about some of the words. Some websites have them, but it's obviously
not what he's saying. The song is around eighty years old so the sound obviously
isn't very clear.
When playing the verses, just play the chords with alternating bass notes. For the
Bb6 chord, just barre the G, B, and high E strings at the 3rd fret, hit the bass
note once and strike the chord twice.

You can shake it, you can break it, you can hang it on the wall.
F
But I don't wanna, (I'm not sure about lyrics here.)
