But c'mon baby n' take a walk 

C'mon baby n' take a walk 

C'mon baby n' take a walk 

A-rock this old joint, now 

A-c'mon babe 

An let's go out an have some fun 

A-go down a Mr. Sife 

And get a quart-a 51 

But c'mon baby an take a walk 

C'mon baby an take a walk 

C'mon baby an take a walk 

A-rock this old joint, now

'Bill, now where you got your honey headin', now?'

'Mr. John, I wanna see you have a good time' 

'Give me some ivory, you know what I mean' 

'Yeah, yeah' 

Ev'ry morn' before breakfast 

I don't her awake from nine to ten 

Lacey, look 'cross the table 

An I have a quart of 51, again 

But c'mon baby take a walk with me 

C'mon baby n' take a walk 

C'mon baby n' take a walk 

Around this old joint, now 

I drink a quart in the mo'nin 

I drink a quart late at night 

If I don't get a quart three times a day 

I don't sleep right 

But c'mon baby an take a walk 

C'mon baby n' take a walk with me 

C'mon baby n' take a walk 

Around this old joint, now 

'Come on Mr. & Mrs. Bass Bob, Joe you got it' 

'Yes, shake-shake-shake-shake' 

'That's why you got your pocket always hidden' 

'Bill, now let me blow my blues a little' 

(harp & instrumental to end)
