Marty Robbins - Tennesse Toddy Lyrics
Well, me and my baby was a-walkin down the roadJust a-hoppin along like two little toadsI looked down at her; I said, What can we do?She said, Lets go someplace where we can hop to the blues!I said, I dont know a place where we can do such a thing.She said, I know a place, and, man, its just a dream!Its just a little spot on the outside of townWhere we can really pick em up and put em down!So we went to a place called EverybodysThere I met a little chick called the Tennessee ToddyThe reason she was called the Tennessee ToddyWas that she was all legs with a little bitty body,But that cat could go, yeah, she was gone, gone, along gone,And Ill tell you all about it in the very next verse of my song.She was long and lean like a green string bean:Calm and collected and cool and keen!She was all of this and a whole lot more;When my baby saw me watching her, she threw me out the doorAnd we were gone, yeah, we were gone, along gone,And Ill tell you more about it in the very next verse of my song.I took my baby home and she said, Good night.She said, Be real good and sleep real tight!I rushed right back to EverybodysCause I had to get acquainted with the Tennessee Toddy!So I left, yeah, I was gone, gone, along gone,And Ill tell you more about it in the very next verse of my song.I was back there jumpin with Toddy at threeWhen in walked a gent twice as big as meHe looked real mean and mad and sore;He made for me and I made for the door,Just a-runnin, yeah, I was gone, gone, along gone,And there aint no more, so this is the end of my song...
