Band - Yazoo Street Scandal Lyrics
Stranded out in the night,Eliza took me downTo see the widow giveRain to the town.Its against the lawTo be a tonic man,But the widow knowsShes 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 goIts a long trip to mexico.Eliza wait by the door,I cant 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.Then I dropped my shoes,Eliza called my name.She said it looked to herLike its gonna rain.Then the cotton kingCame in chokinAnd the widow laughed and said:I aint jokin.Take once for allShe 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 saidWith 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 manWith a boat named breezySaid: you can ride with clyde, boys,If you rock it kinda slow and easy,All day and all night.
