St. Louis Cemetery Blues - Squirrel Nut Zippers

I was going downtown

Just the other day to meet my mates

They said I’ll meet you down

Down in that mean old burying ground

I can shack my rattle

Rattle my bones

Just don’t lay down before you’re done

You can rag momma rag

You can’t help it if it’s not your bag

Down in the St. Louis cemetary

Got the St. Louis cemetary blues

We shall walk through the valley

Walk through the valley soon

We shall talk with the spirits

Talk with the spirits soon

Even Jesus himself shall be our leader

And you can rag momma rag

You can’t help it if it’s not your bag

Down at the St. Loius cemetary

Got the St. Louis cemetary blues
