Fence Breakin' Yellin' Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Here comes two women : I liked to drove them wild
Well you drinking bad liquor : you'll be overtaken after a while
He must be desperated : I don't know nothing else it could be
Standing on the corner didn't mean no harm : the boy made a dash at me
Made a break at me : groped for my pocketknife
One had me cooling off : while the other one talked about taking my wife
And when I went for my gun : you ought to see them yelling breaking that fence
I first thought they was crazy : but I found out they didn't have no sense
You can take my money : I mean you can wear my best clothes
Lemon won't kill no quicker : if you bother with my jellyroll
Some people like their sugar : I'm a fool about my China tea
You can have all this world : but leave my honeycomb home with me
