You Can't Shush Katie Lyrics
You Can't Shush Katie (Album Version) - Clarence Williams' Blue Five
I met the loudest gal in New Orleans
She calls her mouth Katie Brown
She's got the loudest mouth in New Orleans
And that's a loud Southern town
When Katie talks she really yells;
When Katie squawks she raises - well
The townfolk try to hush her but I claim
They can't calm her down
Oh you can't shush Katie
The talky little lady
The gabbiest gal in town
When she was young they say Doctor Beedle
Vaccinated her with a phonograph needle
Her idle chatter and foolish patter
Makes you wanna strap her down
When she comes in to say "Hello "
You have to disconnect the radio
Oh you can't shush Katie
The proper little lady
The gabbiest gal in town
Oh you can't shush Katie
The talky little lady
The gabbiest gal in town
When she was young they say Doctor Beedle
Vaccinated her with a phonograph needle
Her idle chatter and foolish patter
Makes you wanna strap her down
When she comes in to say "Hello "
You have to disconnect the radio
Oh you can't shush Katie
The proper little lady
The gabbiest gal in town
