Beale Street Blues (2/8/56)

Beale Street Blues - Ella Fitzgerald

Written by：W.C. Handy

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

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

Who sings 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 going to take the sergeant for to make me go

Goin' to the river maybe by and by

Goin' to the river and there's a reason why

Because the river's wet and beale street's done gone dry

Because the river's wet and beale street's done gone dry
