Way Downtown

(альбом: Me / And / Dad - 2022)

Way downtown, fooling around
Took me to the jail
It's oh me, it's oh my
Ain't no one to go my bail

It was late last night when ol' Willie come home
I heard him a-rapping on the door
He's a-slipping and a-sliding with them new shoes on
Papa said, "Willie, don't you rap no more"

Way downtown, fooling around
Took me to the jail
It's oh me, it's oh my
Ain't no one to go my bail (Get her, Michael)

Well, I wish I was over at my sweet Sally's house
Sitting in that big armchair
One arm around my old guitar
And the other one around my dear

Way downtown, fooling around
Took me to the jail
It's oh me and it's oh my
Ain't no one to go my bail

Well, it's one old shirt, it's about all I've got
And a dollar is all I crave
I brought nothing with me into this old world
Ain't taking nothing to my grave

Way downtown, fooling around
Took me to the jail
It's oh me and it's oh my
Ain't no one to go my bail (Let's hear that banjo)

Way downtown, fooling around
Took me to the jail
Oh me and it's oh my
Ain't no one to go my bail
