[Verse 1]
Standin' on the corner, I didn't mean no harm
Along come a police that took me by the arm
It was down in New Orleans, corner of [?] and [?]
They say, "Big boy, you gon' have to tell me your name"
[Refrain]
Yodel-ay-hee, yo-o-del-ay-heee
[Verse 2]
I say, "You'll find my name on the tail of my shirt
I'm a French Quarter hustler, I don't have to work
Listen all you rounders, you better leave my woman alone
'Cause I'll take my special and run all you rounders home
[Refrain]
Yodel-ay-hee, yo-o-del-ay-heee
[Verse 3]
My good gal loves me, everybody knows
And she paid a hundred cash dollars just for me, a suit of clothes
She came to the joint, a forty-four in each hand
She said, "Stand aside, all you women and men, 'cause I'm lookin' for my man"
[Refrain]
Yodel-ay-hee, yo-o-del-ay-heee
