Standing On The Corner

Standing On The Corner - Smiley Lewis

Lyrics by：D. Bartholomew

Composed by：D. Bartholomew

I was standing standing on the corner

Yes as high as high could be

Looked at all those people

Yes that was looking at me

Oh man go run and tell my mommy

What the people done to me

I know she love me

Yes she set me free

Can't you see can't you see can't you see

What the people done to me

Took all my freedom

Now I'm happy as I can be

Some people like to gamble

Other people love buying pretty clothes

I would rather be knocked out in New Orleans

Sleeping on somebody's floor

Yeah if I had if I had my life to live over

I'd do the same thing again

'Cause I love good times

Yeah I'm crazy about my gin

Bring the big bottle man hurry with the bottle
