Can't Get Right Blues (Live)
Alright, it's Davison County
But we're gonna pretend that we're up in Senatobia instead
And it's gonna be a little Mississippi juke joint
A little Wednesday night at the station in, boys
Ah one, ah two, ah three
Now, listen here
Every time I talk about tomorrow, I'ma think about yesterday
Every time I go for a ride, you know I end up walkin' away
Every time I feel like jukin', I lose my dance hall shoes
Every time I wanna make love, I end up making the blues
I just can't get it right (no, no, no)
Get it right (ooh, yeah, yeah)
I love a do-right, mama, I love a do-right, man
Now won't you walk right up unto the promised land?
Now won't you get it right? (No, no, no)
Get it right (oh, yeah, yeah)
Well, the pig can't swim, and the chick can't fly
But we'll all be angels in the by and by, look
A-giggin' at the razor's edge (at the brawl, y'all)
Have a ball, oh, come one, come all
Now, listen here
Every time I wash my feet, I put on dirty socks
Every time I'm sleepin' in, I end up watchin' the clock tick-tock
Every time I'm wakin', they say I'm loafin' in bed
Every time I'm smokin', I end up chewin' instead
I just can't get it right (no, no, no)
Get it right (yeah, yeah)
I love ya do-right, mama, I love ya do-right, man
Now won't you walk right up unto the promised land?
Get it right (no, no, no)
Get it right (oh, yeah, yeah)
Well, the pig can't swim, and the chick can't fly
But we'll all be angels in the by and by, lower
Now, won't you listen here?
Every time I see that woman, I end up with a friend
Every time I'm on high times, you know I'm loafin' the street again
Every time I kill a tick, it turns out it was a goon
Every time I'm right on the money, I spend it like I'm loose
I just can't get it right (oh, no, no, no)
Get it right (yeah, yeah)
I love ya do-right mama, I love ya do-right man
Now won't you walk right up unto the promised land?
Get it right (no, no, no)
Get it right (yeah, yeah)
And the pig can't swim, and the chick can't fly
But we'll all be angels in the by and by
But we're gonna pretend that we're up in Senatobia instead
And it's gonna be a little Mississippi juke joint
A little Wednesday night at the station in, boys
Ah one, ah two, ah three
Now, listen here
Every time I talk about tomorrow, I'ma think about yesterday
Every time I go for a ride, you know I end up walkin' away
Every time I feel like jukin', I lose my dance hall shoes
Every time I wanna make love, I end up making the blues
I just can't get it right (no, no, no)
Get it right (ooh, yeah, yeah)
I love a do-right, mama, I love a do-right, man
Now won't you walk right up unto the promised land?
Now won't you get it right? (No, no, no)
Get it right (oh, yeah, yeah)

Now won't you walk right up unto the promised land?
Get it right (no, no, no)
Get it right (yeah, yeah)
And the pig can't swim, and the chick can't fly
But we'll all be angels in the by and by
