| Down on Atlanta on Harris Street
|
| That’s where the boys and gals do meet
|
| Out in the alley in the street
|
| Every little kid that you meet
|
| Buzz all around like a bee
|
| Shake it like a ship on the sea
|
| Came all the way from Paris France
|
| Come into Atlanta to get a chance
|
| Grab your mama and hold her tight
|
| Let’s mess around the rest of the night
|
| Grip your head way up high
|
| Grab your daddy and make him cry
|
| People come from miles around
|
| Get in Dark Town to break them down
|
| Down in dark town night and day
|
| Trying to dance them blues away
|
| Go all the way back to Newport News
|
| Singing these doggone Atlanta blues |
