Intro
Verse
Standin on a corner
I didn’t mean no harm
When a big policeman
Grabbed me by thee arm
Now it was down in Memphis
On the corner of Beal and Main
Tag
He laughed hey big boy
I’m gonna hafta know your name
Verse
Now you can find my name
on the tail of my shirt
I’m a Tennessee hustler
And I never have to work
But I’m telling all you rounders
You best leave my women alone
I’ll take my .38 Special
And I’ll run you out this town
