Beale Street Blues - Bing Crosby
I've seen the lights of gay Broadway
Old Market Street down by the Frisco Bay
I've strolled the Prado
I've gambled on the Bourse
The seven wonders of the world I've seen
And many are the places I have been
Take my advice folks and see Beale Street first
You'll see pretty browns in beautiful gowns
And you'll see tailor mades and hand me downs
You'll meet honest men and pick pockets skilled
And business never closes
Till somebody gets killed
And If Beale Street could talk
If Beale Street could talk
Married men would have to take their beds and walk
Except one or two who never drink booze
And the blind man on the corner singing
The Beale Street Blues
I'd rather be there
Than any place I know
I'd rather be there
Than any place I know
It's gonna take a sergeant for to make me go
I'm going down to the river maybe by and by
I'm going down to that river
And there's a reason why
Because the river's wet
And Beale Street's done gone dry
