Cherry Street Blues Songtext
von Little Hat Jones

Train come to San Antone, man, and stop in the yard
Just as sure as the train come to
San Antone, man, and stop in the yard
It′s gonna take two dollars and a
Quarter, I declare to send me a poster card

Baby, aw honey what's on your mind?
Baby, honey what′s on your mind?
'Cause you really keeps me in trouble,
Really thinkin' about you all the time

I′m gonna move to the bottom, camp out on the ground
I′m gonna move to the bottom, man, and camp out on the ground
Every morning I'll call my woman just to hear my echo sound


I′ve got a woman in San Antone, I declares, really sweet to me
I've got a woman in San Antone, man, really sweet to me
′Cause you people don't know she′s
Here, but she lives on Cherry Street

Oh lawd lawdy lawd
Oh lawd, lawdy lawd
I want Eddy Duncan, listen, to be my brother-in-law

Now, you men got these women, aw treat them nice and kind
Say you men got these sweet women,
How come you don't be nice and kind?
'Cause don′t you know Little Hat′s got
Something that'll change your sweet woman′s mind

Know you ain't gonna think it′s so
Well I'm gonna tell you men something,
I know you ain′t gonna think it's so
