Songtexte Yellow Dog Blues - Louis Armstrong and His All Stars

E'er since Miss Susan Johnson lost her Jockey, Lee,
There has been much excitement,
And more to be.
You can hear her moaning night and morn
Wonder where my easy rider's gone?

Cable grams come of sympathy
Telegrams go of inquiry
Letters come from Ala'Bam'
And everywhere that Uncle Sam
Has even a rural delivery
All day the phone rings but it's not for me
At last good tidings fill our hearts with glee
And this message comes all the way from Tennessee

Dear Sue, your easy rider
Struck this burg today On a south-bound rattler side door Pullman car
Yeah, Seen him here an' he was on the hog
I say
Easy rider's gotta stay away
So he had to vamp it
But the hike ain't far
He's gone where the southern
Cross' the Yellow Dog
