I just blew back in town So I thought I'd hang around I ain't got nothin' else to do Don't see a soul I know This street done took it's toll Got them ol' lower Broad St. Blues The cops are sellin' souvenirs from cruisers The tourists send up roses to the losers Now all they wanna do is be ol' buckaroo Got them ol' lower Broad St. Blues Now some blew all their pay And some were blown away But they all blew their hillbilly lids Dancers all limp home The street lets out a groane And the whineo's are all snug under the bridge Somewhere in the alley, in the corner of my eye The ghost of Scotty Stoneman drinkin' Bluetail Fly A message from the past, your next might be your last Got them ol' lower Broad St Blues Got them ol' lower Broad St Blues
