متن موزیک

Standed 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 know, she's got the upper hand

So I went on in, feelin' 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 waited by the door

I can't stay here anymore, no, no, no, no

Then she took a pill

She washed her feet in the mud

She said "Look out, son, you know

I just started a flood for 40 days and 40 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, he came in chokin'

And the widow laughed and said "I ain't jokin'

Think what you want

She said, "Now don't ya tease me

I just fell in love, boys

So rock me kinda slow and rock me 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

And the widow seized by 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"

It's getting better, wanna do one more?

What's that?
