Текст песни East St. Louis Tweedle-Dee (Steve Goodman) с переводом

I was down in the orchard

With the apples and plums

Got two good hands and one rule of thumb

If you’re goin' to East St. Louis

Don’t you drink too much

Cut down that consumption

You shakey legged such and such

Well that Mississippi River is deep and wide

There’s my gal on the other side

I’m in Davenport

She’s in East Moline

With the Rock Island Line

And the Mississippi in between

This is a two and four world

And you clap on one and three

Come on baby

Don’t Canal Street me If you’re goin' to East St. Louis

Don’t you drink too much

Cut down that consumption

You shakey legged such and such
