lyrics

Down in Memphis, Tennessee there lives a girl named Cindy.
With a meat shop on the block, she's always got the gimmies.
There's a meal called southern eel and you can't resist from tryin’.
Every time you pass the door you can hear Miss Cindy cryin’.

Oh beedle um bum. Come see me if you ain't had none.
She make a dumb man speak, a lame man run,
you sure miss plenty if you ain't had none.
Oh beedle um bum, oh beedle um bum,
got the best beedle bum down in Tennessee.

Down in Nevada City there lives a girl named Lisa.
Every time I take her home she says she wants a greaser.
She can walk the streets at night and she knows how to sway it.
Every night I'm home alone you can surely hear me say it.

Down in Nashville, Tennessee, I did it down the hall.
I did it on the windows, I did it on the wall.
I did it in your break room and in that smoking area.
I did it on my hands though I know I might be scaring ya.

Gotta love, Gotta love, Gotta love that beedle um bum.
