Beale Street Blues Dukes Of Dixieland

[Verse 1]
You'll see pretty gals, real beautiful gals
You'll see tailor-mades and hand-me-downs
You'll meet honest men, and pick-pockets skilled
You know that business never closes 'til somebody gets killed

[Verse 2]
If Beale Street could talk, if Beale Street could talk
Married men would have to pack their beds and walk
Except one or two who never drink booze
And the blind man on the corner who sings his Beale Street Blues

[Verse 3]
He says, "I'd rather be there than any place I know"
Wеll now, I'd rather be therе than any place I know
It's gonna take the sergeant for to make me go

[Verse 4]
I'm goin' to the river, boy, maybe by and by
I said, I'm goin' to the river, and here's the reason why
Cause the river's wet, and Beale Street's done gone dry

[Instrumental]
