Standin' On The Corner

Jimmie Dale Gilmore · Other Songs - Jimmie Dale Gilmore

Standing on the corner

I didn't mean no harm

When a big policeman

Grabbed me by the arm



Now, it was down in Memphis

On the corner of Beale and Main

He said, "Now, hey big boy

I'm gonna have to know your name"



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 rounders home
