Chorus Me and my baby got the whole thing down From the Hudson River down to China Town Laid up in bed ‘til the sun goes down Me and my baby got the whole thing down V1 Whoa, I’ve got a shotgun leanin’ on a kitchen chair Think I might get drunk and shoot it in the air Drive up to the hills and get lost somewhere One more last shot and baby I’ll be there Chorus Me and my baby got the whole thing down From the Hudson River down to China Town Laid up in bed ‘til the sun goes down Me and my baby got the whole thing down V2 Oh, I’m gonna make me some money downtown tonight Chase all them pretty girls through the neon lights Stumble back to bed right about daylight But in the back of my mind something don’t feel right. Oh!
Chorus Me and my baby got the whole thing down From the Hudson River down to China Town Laid up in bed ‘til the sun goes down Me and my baby got the whole thing down Bridge Whoa, sweet Virginia I’ve been gone away too long. Whoa Lord Sweet old Dominion I don’t think I’m ever coming home V3 There’s a police chopper come down the hill If they don’t find my grain, they’re gonna find my still. Oh Lord! Looks like I’m gonna have a lot of time to k** Tell my sweet Louise that my love was real. Oh Lord! Chorus (x2) Oh! Me and my baby got the whole thing down From the Hudson River down to China Town Laid up in bed ‘til the sun goes down Me and my baby got the whole thing down
