Jimmie Rodgers — Blue Yodel No. 9 Standin On The Corner

[Verse 1] Standin' on the corner, I didn't mean no harm Along come a police, he took me by the arm It was down in Memphis, corner of Beale and Main He says, "Big boy, you'll have to tell me your name" [Refrain] Dee-oh-dee-lay-ee, eh-ee, oh-dee-lay-ee [Verse 2] I said, "You'll find my name on the tail of my shirt I'm a Tennessee hustler, I don't have to work" So listen all you rounders, you better leave my women alone 'Cause I'll take my Special and run all you rounders home [Refrain] Dee-oh-dee-lay-ee, eh-ee, oh-dee-lay-ee [Verse 3] My good gal loves me, everybody knows And she paid a hundred cash dollars just for me, a suit of clothes She come to the joint, a forty-four in each hand She said, "Stand aside, all you women and men, 'cause I'm looking for my man" [Refrain] Dee-oh-dee-lay-ee, eh-ee, oh-dee-lay-ee
