Black Eye Blues (Take 1) |
| Down in Hogan’s Alley lives Miss Nancy Ann |
| Always always fuss and fighting with her man |
| Than I heard miss Nacy say |
| Why do you treat your girl that way |
| I went down the alley other night |
| Nancy and her man just had a fight |
| He hit miss Nancy 'cross her head |
| Then she rose to her feet and she said |
| You low-down alligator |
| Just watch me soon or later |
| Gonna catch you with your britches down |
| You abuse me and you mistreat me |
| You dog around and beat me |
| 'til I’m gonna hang around |
| Take all my money, blacken both of my eyes |
| Give it to another woman come home and tell me lies |
| You low-down alligator |
| Just watch me soon or later |
| Gonna catch you with your britches down |
| I mean |
| Gonna catch you with your britches down |
| You low-down alligator |
| Just watch me soon or later |
| Gonna catch you with your britches down |
