Lyrics

Hard luck pup comin' down the lane
Mama gettin' back his walkin' cane
Lord, Lord, I got them Brown's Ferry blues
Well, I thought it away and went to town
To see that woman and now he's down
Lord, Lord, I got them Brown's Ferry blues
Hard luck pup, you're getting too tight
If you don't quit drinkin', you'll be high as a kite
Lord, Lord, I got them Brown's Ferry blues
He can drink a block and tackle kind
He can walk a block and tackle a lion
Lord, Lord, I got them Brown's Ferry blues
Well, I walked up to my girl's old man
And asked him for my true love's hand
Lord, Lord, I got them Brown's Ferry blues
He said, "You la-la little Caloos"
Instead of her hand, I got his foot
Lord, Lord, I got them Brown's Ferry blues
Well, hard luck pup's standin' in the rain
The world was corn, you couldn't buy grain
Lord, Lord, I got them Brown's Ferry blues
Well, he runs around in secondhand clothes
You can smell his feet wherever he goes
Lord, Lord, I got them Brown's Ferry blues
Here goes Bella
Well, the revenue man took my gin
I hope he don't come back again
Lord, Lord, I got them Brown's Ferry blues
Well, he took my sweetheart with him too
Because she had a little drink or two
Lord, Lord, I got them Brown's Ferry blues
Yeah, I do
Well, here we are, and here we are
Around and around, and here we are
Lord, Lord, I got them Brown's Ferry blues
Well, it's Michael and Tony and Bella and Sam and Chet and me
And it's here we are
Lord, Lord, I got them Brown's Ferry blues
