Tennessee Toddy (Album Version) - Marty Robbins (马丁·罗宾逊)
Well  me and my baby was a-walkin down the road
Just a-hoppin along like two little toads
I looked down at her; I said  What can we do
She said  Lets go someplace where we can bop to the blues
I said  I don't know a place where we can do such a thing"
She said  I know that place  and  man  its just a dream
Its just a little spot on the outside of town
Where we can really pick em up and put em down
So we went yeah  we were gone  gone along gone
And Ill tell you all about it in the very next verse of my song
Well we went to a place called Everybodys
There I met a little chick called the Tennessee Toddy
The reason she was called the Tennessee Toddy
Was that she was all legs with a little bitty body
But that cat could go  yeah  she was gone  gone along gone
Well Ill tell you all about it in the very next verse of my song
Well  she was long and lean like a green string bean
Calm and collected and cool and keen
She was all of this and a whole lot more
When my baby saw me watching her
She threw me out the door
And we were gone  yeah  we were gone  along gone
Well  Ill tell you more about it in the very next verse of my song
Well I took my baby home and she said  Good night
She said  Be real good and sleep real tight
But I rushed right back to Everybodys
Cause I had to get acquainted with the Tennessee Toddy
So I left  yeah  I was gone  gone along gone
And Ill tell you more about it in the very next verse of my song
I was back there jumpin with Toddy at three
When in walked a gent twice as big as me
He looked real mean and mad and sore
He made for me and I made for the door
Just a-runnin  yeah  I was gone  gone along gone
Well Ill tell you more about it in the very next verse of my song
Well  I didn't know that Toddy had a man of her own
Made out of nothin' but a muscle and bone
I know I'd rather have a baby instead
But that big ape would knocks on my head
So I left there  yeah I was gone  gone long gone
Well there ain't no more so this is the end of my song
