South Nashville Blues

I went downtown, it was just to ease my pain
I ended up out walkin in the rain
I took my pistol and a hundred dollar bill
I had everything I needed to get me killed
Southside girls, they suit me just fine
As long as I got money they dont whine
The devil lives on lewis street I swear
I seen him rockin in his rockin chair
I start way up top of lewis street
And I walk down to the end
I start way up top and I walk down to the end
I go way down in the bottoms
And I come back up again
Now mama told me, papa too
They both talked til they turned blue
But I got them ol south nashville blues again
I wont be satisfied until they lock me up again
