letra de yazoo street scandal - the band
stranded out in the night,
eliza took me down
to see the widow give
rain to the town.
it’s against the law
to be a tonic man,
but the widow knows
she’s got the upper hand.
so i went on in
feelin’ kinda wheezy.
you know she soothed my mind, boys,
she rocked me kinda slow and easy
all day and all night.
pick a card before you go
it’s a long trip to mexico.
eliza wait by the door,
i can’t stay here anymore, no, no.
then she took a pill
she washed her feet in the mud
she said “look out son,
you know, i just ordered a flood
for forty days and forty nights”.
then i dropped my shoes,
eliza called my name.
she said it looked to her
like it’s gonna rain.
then the cotton king
came in chokin’
and the widow laughed and said:
“i ain’t jokin’.
take once for all”
she said “now don’t ya tease me.
i just fell in love, boy,
so rock me kinda slow and kinda easy,
all day and all night.”
sweet william said
with a drunken head:
“if i had a boat,
i’d help y’all float”.
eliza stood there watching,
william in a trance,
as the widow _did_ the st. vitus dance. [?]
but just then an old man
with a boat named “breezy”
said: “you can ride with clyde, boys,
if you rock it kinda slow and easy,
all day and all night”.
