When you go down in Deep Elm
To have a little fun
Better have fifteen dollars
When the policeman comes
Oh, pretty mama
Your daddy's got them Deep Elm blues
Oh, pretty mama
Your daddy's got them Deep Elm blues
Yeah, when you go down in Deep Elm
Put your money in your shoe
And women in Deep Elm
Dig a hole with you
Oh, pretty mama
Your daddy's got them Deep Elm blues
Yeah, pretty mama
Your daddy's got them Deep Elm blues
Now, when you go down in Deep Elm
Keep your money in your pants
Them women in Deep Elm
Don't give a man a chance
Oh, pretty mama
Your daddy's got them Deep Elm blues
Oh, pretty mama
Your daddy's got them Deep Elm blues
Now, when you go down in Deep Elm
To have a little fun
You have your fifteen dollars
When the policeman comes
Oh, pretty mama
Your daddy's got them Deep Elm blues
Aah, pretty mama
Your daddy's got them Deep Elm blues
