Papa Charlie Jackson - Maxwell Street Blues Lyrics

I was walking down morgan: Stopped on maxwell street
I asked the desk sergeant police force: My gal ain't
Off of the street

I couldn't talk to the desk sergeant: Tell him *when
And* where it took place
Because I knew my mama: Got arrested on maxwell street

Lord I'm talking about the wagon: Talking about the???
Car too
Because maxwell street's so crowded on a sunday: You can
Hardly pass through

There's maxwell street market: Got water street market
Too
If you ain't got no money: The women got nothing for you
To do

I got the maxwell street blues: Mama and it just won't
Pay
Because the maxwell street women: Going to carry me to
My grave

I live six twenty‑four maxwell: Mama and I'm talking
About you
Because I swear I don't walk: Said buly buly buly how do
You
