Lyrics

Elder Greene is (take your time)
 Elder Greene is gone
 Gone way down the country with his long coat
 With his long coat
 With his long coat on
 Gone way down the country with his long coat on
 Elder Greene told the deacon, let's go down in prayer
 It's a big 'ssociation at New Orleans
 Come and let's go there
 And if you got a woman
 Won't raise her to your hand
 Keep away from mamma walkin',
 Molly have been lonesome, Molly Cunningham
 Well the creek's all muddy, and the slough's all dry
 If it wasn't for the sweet mouth county boys all the women would ...
 Don't you leave me here
 Don't you leave me here
 Lord I don't care where in world you go
 Don't you leave me here
 I love to fuss and fight
 I love to fuss and fight
 Lord and get sloppy drunk off a Bottle
 and Bond and walk the streets all night
 And walk the streets all night
 And walk the streets all night
 Lord and get sloppy drunk off a Bottle
 and Bond and walk the streets all night
 Well the creek's all muddy, and the slough's all dry
 If it wasn't for the sweet mouth county boys all the browns would die
 On the road somewhere
 On the road somewhere
 You can find highway robber, on the road somewhere
 On the road somewhere
 On the road somewhere
 You can find highway robber on the road
 Elder Greene told the deacon, let's go down in prayer
 You can find highway robber on the road somewhere
