Strolling Beale No. 2 Songtext
von Rufus Thomas

I woke up this mornin′
Just as blue as I could be
I woke up this mornin'
Just as blue as I could be

I looked all around my bedroom
My woman had cut out on me

So I started strollin′ and drinkin'
Strolling Beale Street, up and down
Strolling Beale Street, up and down, oh, oh


I enquired about my baby
But my woman could not be found, oh, no, no

I saw my baby comin'
She was comin′ with a smile
She said, "I′m comin' home to you, baby
Comin′ home to my baby child"

I, I'll never leave you
Oh, oh, you know just how I feel
I′ll forever be with you, baby
So you won't have to keep on strolling Beale
