Fourteenth Street Blues Songtext
von Blind Percy & His Blind Band

Fourteenth Street women don′t mean no man no good
Fourteenth Street women don't mean no man no good
Go out and get full of liquor, raise sand all over the neighborhood

Let me tell you, mama, like the Dago told the Jew
Let me tell you, mama, like the Dago told the Jew
"If you don′t want me, a cinch I don't want you"


There's two kind of nations, I sure can′t understand
There′s two kind of nations, I sure can't understand
That′s a Chinese woman, and a doggone Dago man

I was born in Texas, I were raised in Tennessee
I was born in Texas, I were raised in Tennessee
You missed a real brownie, when you picked all over me

I feel like jumping through the keyhole in your door
I feel like jumping through the keyhole in your door
Told me this mornin', you didn′t want me no more

I feel like snapping my big gun in your face
I feel like snapping my big gun in your face
Had the nerve to tell me, 'nother man′s got my place
