Текст песни BOB DYLAN - Yazoo Street Scandal
<br/>
Stranded out in the night,<br />Eliza took me down<br />To see the widow give<br />Rain to the town.<br />It's against the law<br />To be a tonic man,<br />But the widow knows<br />( )<br />She's got the upper hand.<br />So I went on in<br />Feelin' kinda wheezy.<br />You know she soothed my mind, boys,<br />She rocked me kinda slow and easy<br />All day and all night.<br /><br />Pick a card before you go<br />It's a long trip to Mexico.<br /><br />Eliza wait by the door,<br />I can't stay here anymore, no, no.<br /><br />Then she took a pill<br />She washed her feet in the mud<br />She said "Look out son,<br />You know, I just ordered a flood<br />For forty days and forty nights".<br /><br />Then I dropped my shoes,<br />Eliza called my name.<br />She said it looked to her<br />Like it's gonna rain.<br />Then the cotton king<br />Came in chokin'<br />And the widow laughed and said:<br />"I ain't jokin'.<br />Take once for all"<br />She said "Now don't ya tease me.<br />I just fell in love, boy,<br />So rock me kinda slow and kinda easy,<br />All day and all night."<br /><br />Sweet William said<br />With a drunken head:<br />"If I had a boat,<br />I'd help y'all float".<br />Eliza stood there watching,<br />William in a trance,<br />As the widow did the St. Vitus dance.<br />But just then an old man<br />With a boat named "Breezy"<br />Said: "You can ride with Clyde, boys,<br />If you rock it kinda slow and easy,<br />All day and all night".<br />
