I went downtown, it was just to ease my pain
I went downtown, it was just to ease my pain
I ended up out walkin' in the rain
I took my pistol and a hundred dollar bill
I took my pistol and a hundred dollar bill
I had everything I needed to get me killed
And the south side girls, they suit me just fine
The south side girls, they suit me just fine
As long as I got money, they don't whine
That's important
Now, the Devil lives on Lewis Street, I swear
He lives right down Lewis Street, I swear
I seen him rockin' in his rockin' chair
I start way up, on top of Lewis Street, walk down to the end
I start way up top and I walk down to the end
I'm going way down in the bottoms
Well, I come back up again and my
Mama told me, Papa too
They both talked 'til they turned blue
But I got them ol' South Nashville blues again
And I can't be satisfied until they lock me up again
