Levon Helm - Deep Elem Blues Lyrics

Artist: Levon Helm

Album: Ramble At The Ryman

Genre: Rock

When you go down to deep elem
just to have a little fun
better bring fifty dollars
when that policeman comes

whoa sweet mama
daddy's got them deep elem blues
whoa sweet mama
daddy's got them deep elem blues

when you go down to deep elem
put some money in your pants
cuz all them pretty women
never give a man a chance

whoa sweet mama
daddy's got them deep elem blues
whoa sweet mama
daddy's got them deep elem blues

(piano solo)

when you go down to deep elem
put some money in your sock
oh them red headed women
gonna throw you on the rocks

whoa sweet mama
daddy's got them deep elem blues
whoa sweet mama
daddy's got them deep elem blues

(acoustic guitar solo)
(acoustic guitar solo 2)
(mandolin solo)

well i once knew a preacher
preached the bible through and through
went down to deep elem
now his preaching days are through

whoa sweet mama
daddy's got them deep elem blues
whoa sweet mama
daddy's got them deep elem blues

(horn solo)

when you go down to deep elem
just to have a little fun
better bring fifty dollars
when that policeman comes

whoa sweet mama
daddy's got them deep elem blues
whoa sweet mama
daddy's got them deep elem blues
i say whoa sweet mama
daddy's got htem deep elem blues
