Stranded out in the night, Eliza took me down To see the widow give Rain to the town. It's against the law To be a tonic man, But the widow knows She's got the upper hand. So I went on in Feelin' kinda wheezy. You know she soothed my mind, boys, She rocked me kinda slow and easy All day and all night.
Pick a card before you go It's a long trip to mexico.
Eliza wait by the door, I can't stay here anymore, no, no.
Then she took a pill She washed her feet in the mud She said look out son, You know, I just ordered a flood For forty days and forty nights.
Then I dropped my shoes, Eliza called my name. She said it looked to her Like it's gonna rain. Then the cotton king Came in chokin' And the widow laughed and said: I ain't jokin'. Take once for all She said now don't ya tease me. I just fell in love, boy, So rock me kinda slow and kinda easy, All day and all night.
Sweet william said With a drunken head: If I had a boat, I'd help y'all float. Eliza stood there watching, William in a trance, As the widow _did_ the st. vitus dance. [? ] But just then an old man With a boat named breezy Said: you can ride with clyde, boys, If you rock it kinda slow and easy, All day and all night.
