Chicago Green she was
The ice cube queen of blue
She got a tip
From Aunt Mary, said.
Somebody was in love with you
She was so nieve
Famous for her childlike mind
I don't believe
She ever opened
Her bedroom venetian blinds
Already Eddie
Was unsteady on the levee
Down Home
Down Home
Little Willy
Was Chicago's boyfriend
A local screw
He done kicking trippy hippies
In the head
With his hobnail shoes
Already Eddie
Pitching for pennies
Rockin' for bennies
Wound up in the local hole
Without a radio,
And he wrote Aunt Mary said
"Momma, it's getting hairy
Down Home."
Well it was late in the morning
When Chicago bailed Eddie on out
Which tripped out Willie
Oh man you should've heard
him shout..
Yeah they wandered off somewhere
They couldn't find
Their way home.
Any road home
You know I'd really like
To take her but you know
I couldn't make her
Down Home.
Down Home, get it in now
Down Home, in the morning
