Nat King Cole Lyrics for Song: Beale Street Blues
 Lyrics for Album: Songs From St. Louis Blues/looking Back [2007]
 
 
 
 29818>If Beale Street could talk
 
 Beale Street could talk
 
 Married men would have to
 
 Take their beds and walk
 
 
 
 Except one or two
 
 Who never drink booze
 
 And the blind man on the corner
 
 Who sings the Beale Street Blues
 
 
 
 I'd rather be here
 
 Than any place I know
 
 I'd rather be here
 
 Than any place I know
 
 
 
 It's gonna take the sergeant
 
 For to make me go
 
 
 
 Goin' to the river
 
 Maybe by and by
 
 Goin' to the river
 
 And there's a reason why
 
 
 
 Because the river's wet
 
 And Beale Street's done gone dry
 
 
 
 Goin' to the river
 
 Maybe by and by
 
 Goin' to the river
 
 And there's a reason why
 
 
 
 Because the river's wet
 
 And Beale Street's done gone dry
 
 
 
 Because the river's wet
 
 And Beale Street's done gone dry
 
 
 
 Because the river's wet
 
 And Beale Street's done gone dry
