Deep Ellum Blues

When you go down in Deep Ellum
Put your money in your shoes
'Cause the Deep Ellum women
Got the money makin' blue
Oh, sweet mama, got the money makin' blue

When you go down in Deep Ellum
Put your money in your head
'Cause the Deep Ellum women
They lay on the flat
Oh, sweet mama, got the money makin' blue

When you go down in Deep Ellum
Put your money in your socks
'Cause the Deep Ellum women
They lay on their guard
Oh, sweet mama, got the money makin' blue
