Tennessee Toddy - Marty Robbins[00:00:00]
Well me and my baby was a-walkin down the road[00:00:04]
Just a-hoppin along like two little toads[00:00:09]
I looked down at her; I said What can we do [00:00:13]
She said Lets go someplace where we can bop to the blues[00:00:16]
I said I dont know a place where we can do such a thing"[00:00:19]
She said I know that place and man its just a dream[00:00:23]
Its just a little spot on the outside of town[00:00:26]
Where we can really pick em up and put em down[00:00:29]
So we went yeah we were gone gone along gone[00:00:32]
And Ill tell you all about it in the very next verse of my song[00:00:38]
Well we went to a place called Everybodys[00:00:45]
There I met a little chick called the Tennessee Toddy[00:00:48]
The reason she was called the Tennessee Toddy[00:00:51]
Was that she was all legs with a little bitty body[00:00:54]
But that cat could go yeah she was gone gone along gone[00:00:58]
Well Ill tell you all about it in the very next verse of my song[00:01:04]
Well she was long and lean like a green string bean[00:01:10]
Calm and collected and cool and keen [00:01:14]
She was all of this and a whole lot more[00:01:17]
When my baby saw me watching her [00:01:20]
She threw me out the door[00:01:22]
And we were gone yeah we were gone along gone[00:01:23]
Well Ill tell you more about it in the very next verse of my song[00:01:29]
Well I took my baby home and she said Good night[00:01:54]
She said Be real good and sleep real tight [00:01:58]
But I rushed right back to Everybodys[00:02:01]
Cause I had to get acquainted with the Tennessee Toddy[00:02:04]
So I left yeah I was gone gone along gone[00:02:07]
And Ill tell you more about it in the very next verse of my song [00:02:13]
I was back there jumpin with Toddy at three[00:02:20]
When in walked a gent twice as big as me[00:02:23]
He looked real mean and mad and sore[00:02:26]
He made for me and I made for the door[00:02:29]
Just a-runnin yeah I was gone gone along gone[00:02:32]
Well Ill tell you more about it in the very next verse of my song[00:02:39]
Well I didn't know that Toddy had a man of her own[00:02:45]
Made out of nothin' but a muscle and bone[00:02:49]
I know I'd rather have a baby instead[00:02:52]
But that big ape would knocks on my head[00:02:55]
So I left there yeah I was gone gone long gone[00:02:58]
Well there ain't no more so this is the end of my song[00:03:04]
