Elder Green Blues (Alt. Vers.)
Elder Greene is (take your time)
Elder Greene is gone
Gone way down the country with his long coat
With his long coat
With his long coat on
Gone way down the country with his long coat on
Elder Greene told the deacon, let's go down in prayer
It's a big 'ssociation at New Orleans
Come and let's go there
And if you got a woman
Won't raise her to your hand
Keep away from mamma walkin',
Molly have been lonesome, Molly Cunningham
Well the creek's all muddy, and the slough's all dry
If it wasn't for the sweet mouth county boys all the women would ...
Don't you leave me here
Don't you leave me here
Lord I don't care where in world you go
Don't you leave me here
I love to fuss and fight
I love to fuss and fight
Lord and get sloppy drunk off a Bottle
and Bond and walk the streets all night
And walk the streets all night
And walk the streets all night
Lord and get sloppy drunk off a Bottle
and Bond and walk the streets all night
Well the creek's all muddy, and the slough's all dry
If it wasn't for the sweet mouth county boys all the browns would die
On the road somewhere
On the road somewhere
You can find highway robber, on the road somewhere
On the road somewhere
On the road somewhere
You can find highway robber on the road
Elder Greene told the deacon, let's go down in prayer
You can find highway robber on the road somewhere
Elder Greene is gone
Gone way down the country with his long coat
With his long coat
With his long coat on
Gone way down the country with his long coat on
Elder Greene told the deacon, let's go down in prayer
It's a big 'ssociation at New Orleans
Come and let's go there
And if you got a woman
Won't raise her to your hand
Keep away from mamma walkin',
Molly have been lonesome, Molly Cunningham
Well the creek's all muddy, and the slough's all dry
If it wasn't for the sweet mouth county boys all the women would ...
Don't you leave me here
Don't you leave me here
Lord I don't care where in world you go
Don't you leave me here
I love to fuss and fight
I love to fuss and fight
Lord and get sloppy drunk off a Bottle
and Bond and walk the streets all night
And walk the streets all night
And walk the streets all night
Lord and get sloppy drunk off a Bottle
and Bond and walk the streets all night
Well the creek's all muddy, and the slough's all dry
If it wasn't for the sweet mouth county boys all the browns would die
On the road somewhere
On the road somewhere
You can find highway robber, on the road somewhere
On the road somewhere
On the road somewhere
You can find highway robber on the road
Elder Greene told the deacon, let's go down in prayer
You can find highway robber on the road somewhere
