You'll see pretty browns in beautiful gowns

You'll see tailor-mades and hand-me-downs

You'll meet honest men

And pick-pockets skilled

You'll find that business never ceases

'Til somebody gets killed

If Beale Street could talk

If Beale Street could talk

Married men would have to take their beds and walk

Except one or two who never drink booze

And the blind man on the corner

Who sings the Beale Street Blues

He said I'd rather be here than anyplace I know

Yes I'd rather be here than anyplace I know

It's gonna take the Sergeant for to make me go

I'm goin' to the river maybe by and by

Yes I'm goin' to the river

And there's a reason why

Because the river's wet

And Beale Street's done gone dry
