Get along down town


I wouldn't marry in the wintertime
Or the spring when the birdies call
Court them girls in the summertime
Leave them in the fall


    Get along down town
    Get along down town
    Get along down to Newport town
    To lay my money down


Rich girl uses cold cream
Poor girl uses lard
My gal uses axle grease
But she rubs it twice as hard


 * Refrain


Beefsteak when I'm hungry
Whiskey when I'm dry
Greenback when I'm hard up
Heaven when I die


 * Refrain


I'd marry up with that girl of mine
Try to settle down
But everytime the wold goose calls
Get along down town


 * Refrain
