Answer to Question 1

 Three-lined (AAB) stanzas:

. . . if one woman don't like it, there'll be a hundred and five that will.
 Stanza 3, with a different second line, follows an A B C text-line pattern.
 Blue notesfor example, on the words rollin' tell, want, please and roll in stanza 1
 Polyrhythm between the singer and his guitar accompaniment
 Typical twelve-bar blues chord progression
 Syncopationfor example at how you want . . . tell . . . mama . . . done roll . . . dusk to dawn in stanza 1.
