"Go Back To Your Woods" lyrics - ROBBIE ROBERTSON

Hide in the bayou under the gun
Been to the house of the rising sun
Come down here trying to make a connection
Must have a bad sense of direction

[Chorus:]
Go back go back to your woods
Go back go back go back to your woods

Carry a torch and an old stiletto
The sound of thunder all over the ghetto
One-eyed jacks and king with the axe
Come from the wrong side of the tracks

[Chorus]

When the night goes down on Storyville
If the women don't get ya, the music will
Catch a thrill

You come down here in a four piece suit
Pork pie hat and the alligator boots
Keep jerking rabbits outta your hat
Now can ya pull a disappearing act

[Chorus]

When the night goes down on Storyville
If the women don't get ya, the music will
Catch a thrill

Go back go back to your woods...
