If Beale Street could talk |
|
Beale Street could talk |
|
Married men would have to |
|
Take their beds and walk |
|
Except one or two |
|
Who never drink booze |
|
And the blind man on the corner |
|
Who sings the Beale Street Blues |
|
I'd rather be here |
|
Than any place I know |
|
I'd rather be here |
|
Than any place I know |
|
It's gonna take the sergeant |
|
For to make me go |
|
Goin' to the river |
|
Maybe by and by |
|
Goin' to the river |
|
And there's a reason why |
|
Because the river's wet |
|
And Beale Street's done gone dry |
|
Goin' to the river |
|
Maybe by and by |
|
Goin' to the river |
|
And there's a reason why |
|
Because the river's wet |
|
And Beale Street's done gone dry |
|
Because the river's wet |
|
And Beale Street's done gone dry |
|
Because the river's wet |
|
And Beale Street's done gone dry |
