Way Over Yonder Songtext
von Rhiannon Giddens

There′s a place I go when I wanna get away
From the crowded streets and the long workdays
The women are nice and the men are pretty
'Cause I just wanna get out of this city
It′s a little-bitty joint just out of town
Got the best fried chicken for miles around

Let's go, let's go

Let′s go way over yonder
Down in the hollow
If I lead, will you follow?
I′ll take you way over yonder


It's not too far, not hard to find
Ain′t no number and there ain't no sign
My Maggie′s gonna meet you with a hug and a grin
She'll take your five dollars and she′ll let you in
You better be ready for a real good time
Gonna lose your cool, gonna lose your mind

Let's go, let's go

Let′s go way over yonder
Down in the hollow
If I lead, will you follow?
I′ll take you way over yonder

The band is tight, they can really play
They would've been famous back in the day
The food is good, but the liquor is better
The time flies by in the best night ever
You look at the clock, and you make for the door
You should have been at work three hours ago

Let′s go, let's go

Let′s go way over yonder
Down in the hollow
If I lead, will you follow?
I'll take you way over yonder
