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"
