Bob Dylan - Yazoo Street Scandal songtekst

Je score:

Stranded out in the night
Eliza took me down
To see the widow 
Give rain to the town
It's against the law 
To be a tonic man
But the widow knows s
She's got the upper hand

So I went on in
Feeling kinda wheezy
You know she soothed my mind, boys
She rocked me kinda slow and easy
All day and all night

Pick a card before you go
It's a long trip to Mexico

Eliza's waiting by the door
I can't stay here anymore, no, no

Then she took a pill
She washed her feet in the mud
She said "Look out, son
You know, I just ordered a flood
For forty days and forty nights"

Then I dropped my shoes
Eliza called my name
She said it looked to her
Like it's gonna rain
Then the cotton king
It came in choking
And the widow laughed and said:
"I ain't joking
Take once for all"
She said "Now don't you tease me
I just fell in love, boy
So rock me kinda slow and kinda easy"

Sweet William said
With a drunken head:
"If I had a boat,
I'd help y'all float"
Eliza stood there watching
William in a trance
As the widow did the St. Vitus dance
But just then an old man
With a boat named "Breezy"
Said: "You can ride with Clyde, boys
If you rock it kinda slow and rock it kinda easy
All day and all night".
