Lonnie Johnson — Tin Can Alley Blues lyrics

Lyrics

Drink another half a pint and a good, cool can of beer!
Oh, kick it, Mister Man! Kick it!
We’re all down in tin can alley!
I was down in tin can alley, loaded down with that bust-head gin.
I was down in tan can alley, loaded down with that bust-head gin.
The police took me to the jailhouse, I got out and come right back again.
I like old tin can alley, I even like old tin can jail.
I like old tin can alley, I even like old tin can jail.
Still they treat me like a dog, with a tin can tied onto my tail.
