Papa Charlie Jackson - Sheik of Displaines Street lyrics

I know a man, he's on our street He don't do nothing but eat and sleep For he's the Sheik of Des Plaines Street Now, he's a man that I would love to meet He's always dressed up and out in the street 'Cause he's the Sheik of Des Plaines Street Now, he don't drink whiskey, nothing sweet When it comes to pretty women, he'd sure love to meet For he's the Sheik of Des Plaines Street From Hartford to Jefferson, from blocks across the street All that territory's the sweet man's beat For he's the Sheik of Des Plaines Street Yas, yas, the Sheik's now goin' promenading, but he'll be back in a minute Now, he's a man, never suffers with the heat He always comes good from his head to his feet For he's the Sheik of Des Plaines Street Now when he walks into a place and takes his seat His ways and actions is hard to beat For he's the Sheik of Des Plaines Street
