South Nashville Blues
|
(Steve Earle)
|
I went downtown, it was just to ease my pain
|
I ended up out walkin' in the rain
|
I took my pistol and a hundred dollar bill
|
I had everything I needed to get me killed
|
|
Southside girls, they suit me just fine
|
As long as I got money they don't whine
|
|
The devil lives on Lewis Street I swear
|
I seen him rockin' in his rockin' chair
|
|
I start way up top of Lewis Street
|
And I walk down to the end
|
I start way up top and I walk down to the end
|
I go way down in the bottoms
|
And I come back up again
|
|
Now Mama told me, Papa too
|
They both talked ¡®til they turned blue
|
But I got them ol' South Nashville blues again
|
I won't be satisfied until they lock me up again
|
