Deep Elem Blues

When You Go Down To Deep Elem
Put Your Money in Your Shoes
The Women in Deep Elem
Got Them Deep Elem Blues

Oh, sweet Mama, Your Daddy's got Them Deep Elem Blues
Oh, sweet Mama, Your Daddy's got Them Deep Elem Blues

Once I Knew a Preacher,
Preached the Bible Thru And Thru
He Went Down To Deep Elem,
Now His Preaching Days Are Thru

Oh, sweet Mama, Your Daddy's got Them Deep Elem Blues
Oh, sweet Mama, Your Daddy's got Them Deep Elem Blues

When you go down to Deep Elem,
Put your money in your socks
The redheads in Deep Elem,
They’ll put you on the rocks

Oh, sweet Mama, Your Daddy's got Them Deep Elem Blues
Oh, sweet Mama, Your Daddy's got Them Deep Elem Blues

When you go down to Deep Elem,
To have a little fun
Have your fifteen dollars ready,
When the policeman comes

Oh, sweet Mama, Your Daddy's got Them Deep Elem Blues
Oh, sweet Mama, Your Daddy's got Them Deep Elem Blues

Go Down To Deep Elem
Put Your Money in Your Shoes
The Women in Deep Elem
Got Them Deep Elem Blues
