Lyrics Jimmie Rodgers

Jimmie Rodgers

Blue Motel No. 9 (standin' On The Corner)

Standing on the corner

I didn't mean no harm

When a big policeman

Grabbed me by the arm

Now I was down in Memephis

On the corner of Beale and main

He said " Now hey big boy

I'm gonna have to know your name

Now you can find my name

On the tail of my shirt

I'm a Tennessee hustler

And I never have to work

But I'm telling all you rounders

You best leave my woman alone

I'll take my.38 special

And I'll run you rounders home
