Текст песни Beale Street Blues - Ella Fitzgerald

The seven wonders of the world I've seen
And many other places I have been
Take my advice, folks
And see Beale Street first

If Beale Street could talk
If Beale Street could talk
Married men would have to
Take their bags and walk

Except one or two
Who never drink booze
And the blind man on the corner who
Sings the Beale Street Blues

I'd rather be here than any place I know
I'd rather be here than any place I know
It's going to take the sergeant
For to make me go

Going to the river maybe by and by
Going to the river, and there's a reason why
Because the river's wet
And Beale Street's done gone dry

Because the river's wet
And Beale Street's done gone dry
