"Deep Ellum" lyrics - NORTH MISSISSIPPI ALLSTARS

If you go down to Deep Ellum
Put your money in your shoe
The women in Deep Ellum
Got them Deep Ellum blues

Oh, sweet mama
Your daddy got them Deep Ellum blues
Ooo, oh, oh, oh, sweet mama
Your daddy got them Deep Ellum blues
You know he got 'em

If you go down to Deep Ellum
If you want to have some fun
Well, get your dollars ready
When the police man comes

Oh, sweet mama
Your daddy got them Deep Ellum blues
Oh, oh, sweet mama
Your daddy got them Deep Ellum
You know he got 'em, Deep Ellum

You know he got 'em

Well, I used to be a preacher
Preached the Bible through and through
But when I left Deep Ellum
My preaching days were through

Oh, sweet mama
Your daddy got them Deep Ellum blues
Oh, oh, oh, sweet mama
Your daddy got them Deep Ellum blues

If you go down to Deep Ellum
Put your money in your sock
The people in Deep Ellum
Put you on the rocks

Whoa, sweet mama
Your daddy got them Deep Ellum blues
Ooo, oh, oh, oh, sweet mama
Your daddy got them Deep Ellum blues
You know he got 'em, blues

Oh, oh, yeah
