Yazoo Street Scandal
Stranded out in the night,Eliza took me downTo see the widow giveRain to the town.It's against the lawTo be a tonic man,But the widow knowsShe's got the upper hand.So I went on inFeelin' kinda wheezy.You know she soothed my mind, boys,She rocked me kinda slow and easyAll day and all night.Pick a card before you goIt's a long trip to Mexico.Eliza wait by the door,I can't stay here anymore, no, no.Then she took a pillShe washed her feet in the mudShe said "look out son,You know, I just ordered a floodFor forty days and forty nights".Letras de cancionesThen I dropped my shoes,Eliza called my name.She said it looked to herLike it's gonna rain.Then the cotton kingCame in chokin'And the widow laughed and said:"I ain't jokin'.Take once for all"She said "now don't ya tease me.I just fell in love, boy,So rock me kinda slow and kinda easy,All day and all night."Sweet William saidWith a drunken head:"if I had a boat,I'd help why'all float".Eliza stood there watching,William in a trance,As the widow _did_ the St. Vitus dance. [?]But just then an old manWith a boat named "breezy"Said: "you can ride with Clyde, boys,If you rock it kinda slow and easy,All day and all night".
