Way down south in Memphis, Tennessee, Jugband music sounds sweet to me It sounds so sweet, yes it's hard to beat, Jugband music certainly was a treat to me I went to my gal, put my hand on her knee, I said you don't play the jug you can't play with me It sounds so sweet, yes it's hard to beat, Jugband music certainly was a treat to me I went right home, turned on the radio, Jugband music made me stomp the floor It sounds so sweet, yes it's hard to beat, Jugband music certainly was a treat to me I took off my socks, I took off my shoes, I jumped all night to the jugband blues It sounds so sweet, yes it's hard to beat, Jugband music certainly was a treat to me
