Bell Street Blues

歌詞

I live down in Bell street alley, just as drunk as I can be I live down in Bell street alley, just as drunk as I can be Seem like them Bell street Crow Janes, have done got rough with me I drink so much Bell Street whiskey, they won't sell McTell no more I drink so much Bell Street whiskey, they won't sell poor boy McTell no more I've got the Cavenglass boys, playing all around my door This Bell Street whiskey, make you sleep all in your clothes That old Bell Street whiskey, make you sleep all in your clothes And when you wake up next morning, feel like you done laid outdoors You can get booze down on Bell Street, for two bits and a half a throw You can get booze down on Bell Street, for two bits and a half a throw They'll make you send out your mother and father, to just break down the jailhouse door Walked in my room, the other night Man come in, he want to fight Took my gun, my right hand Hold me people, I don't want to kill no man When I said that, he rapped me across my head The first shot I fired, then the man fell dead Bell street whiskey, drove me to the county jail Got me laying back here on my bunk, nobody in the world to go my bail
