Deep Elm Blues


G                       
Once I knew a preacher,
                                        
Preached the Bible through and through,
                           
He went down to Deep Elem,
                                    
Now his preachin' days are through.

        
Chorus:

C7            
Oh sweet mama
                                G      
Your daddy's got them Deep Elem blues.
D7            
Oh sweet mama
                                G      
Your daddy's got them Deep Elem blues.

G                        
Once I had a girlfriend.
                           
She meant the world to me.
                            
She went down to Deep Elem,
                                   
Now she ain't what she used to be.

chorus 


G                              
When you go down to Deep Elem,
                              
Put your money in your socks.
                               
'Cause them women in Deep Elem
                                
Will sure put you on the rocks.

chorus 


G                           
If you go down to Deep Elem
                      
To have a little fun,
                            
Have your ten dollars ready
                          
When the policeman comes.
