Yazoo Street Scandal - Bob Dylan
Stranded out in the night
Eliza took me down
To see the widow give
Rain to the town
Its against the law
To be a tonic man
But the widow knows
Shes got the upper hand
So I went on in
Feelin kinda wheezy
You know she soothed my mind boys
She rocked me kinda slow and easy
All day and all night
Pick a card before you go
Its a long trip to mexico
Eliza wait by the door
I cant stay here anymore no no
Then she took a pill
She washed her feet in the mud
She said look out son
You know I just ordered a flood
For forty days and forty nights
Then I dropped my shoes
Eliza called my name
She said it looked to her
Like its gonna rain
Then the cotton king
Came in chokin
And the widow laughed and said:
I aint jokin
Take once for all
She said now dont ya tease me
I just fell in love boy
So rock me kinda slow and kinda easy
All day and all night
Sweet william said
With a drunken head:
If I had a boat
Id help yall float
Eliza stood there watching
William in a trance
As the widow did the st vitus dance
But just then an old man
With a boat named breezy
Said: you can ride with clyde boys
If you rock it kinda slow and easy
All day and
