Deep Elm - Hank Thompson

When you go down to Deep Elem just to have a little fun

Better have your fifteen dollars when the policeman comes

Oh sweet mama papa got them Deep Elem blues

Oh sweet mama papa got them Deep Elem blues

Now once I knew a preacher Preached the Bible through and through

He went down to Deep Elem now his preachin' days are through

Oh sweet mama papa got them Deep Elem blues

Oh sweet mama papa got them Deep Elem blues

When you go down to Deep Elem put your money in your pants

The women in Deep Elem they don’t give a man a chance

Oh sweet mama papa got them Deep Elem blues

Oh sweet mama papa got them Deep Elem blues

If you go down to Deep Elem, put your money in your shoes

Them gals down in Deep Elem got them Deep Elem blues

Oh sweet mama papa got them Deep Elem blues

Oh sweet mama papa got them Deep Elem blues
