Lyrics Old Pigeon Toed Joe - Jack Teagarden

Way down in Mississippi in the bottom lands
There's a backwoods character that you'd understand
Got the world in a jug and a stopper in his hand
That's old Pigeon Toed Joe
He could always jess a mess of crawfish in the folks in town
And he can always find turnip greens to dig from the ground
On the cool Delta moss he can lay the body down
That's old Pigeon Toed Joe
If his two feet could talk this would be their text
If you let me by this time I'll let you by the next
Oh the shufflin sound they make as they pass
Makes the ants hide out with the snakes in the grass
Oh i know he'll be in glory on the judgement day
When the great gate keeper says to step this way
Oh the good doctor's wait'n and no more will people say
There goes old Pigeon Toed Joe
Oh the good doctor's wait'n and no more will people say
There goes old Pigeon Toed Joe
