Blue Yodel No. 3 - Jimmie Rodgers

She’s long she’s tall she’s six feet from the ground

She’s long she’s tall she’s six feet from the ground

She’s tailor made Lord she ain’t no hand me down

Oh-di-lay-ee-ay, di-lay-dee-oh, de-lay-ee

She’s got eyes like diamonds and her teeth shine just the same

Well she’s got eyes like diamonds and her teeth shine just the same

She’s got red ruby lips she’s got hair like a horse’s mane

Oh-di-lay-ee-ay, di-lay-dee-oh, de-lay-ee

Everytime I see you woman you always on the street

Everytime I see you you always on the street

You hang out on the corners like the police on his beat

Oh-di-lay-ee-ay, di-lay-dee-oh, de-lay-ee

Hey, hey, hey

Won’t you tell me mama where you stayed last night

Tell me mama where you stayed last night

'Cause your hairs all tangled and your clothes don’t fit you right

Oh-di-lay-ee-ay, di-lay-dee-oh, de-lay-ee

I ain’t gonna tell you no stories, woman I ain’t going to lie

I ain’t gonna tell you no stories, mama I ain’t going to lie

But the day you quit me woman, that’s the day that you die

Oh-di-lay-ee-ay, di-lay-dee-oh, de-lay-ee

I hate see this evening sun go down

Lord I hate to see this evening sun go down

'Cause it makes me think I’m on my last go around
