You know, way down yonder in Memphis Tennessee
Jug band music sounds sweet to me
Because it sounds so sweet
Oh you know they're hard to beat
You know the jug band's music certainly was a treat to me
I heard the boys play the other day
You know those boys drove my blues away
Because it sounds so sweet
Oh you know they're hard to beat
And the jug band's music certainly was a treat to me
I went home turned on my radio
I danced along (so long?) until I broke in my floor
Because it sounds so sweet
Oh you know it's hard to beat
And the jug band's music certainly was a treat to me
You know, there's old lady Dinah, you know, was settin' on a rock
Had a forty dollar razor tryin' to shave that knot
Because it sounds so sweet
Oh you know they're hard to beat
You know the jug band's music certainly was a treat to me
I told those people way across that hall
I'm playing this piece and you know that's all
Because it sounds so sweet
Oh you know they're hard to beat
And the jug band's music certainly was a treat to me
Now run here doctor won't you run here quick
All you want's tryin' to have my hambone fixed
Because it sounds so sweet
Oh you know they're hard to beat
And the jug band's music certainly was a treat to me
