[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][A]
[D]

[Verse 1]
When you [D]go
down in Deep Ellum
to have a little fun
You've got to have your fifteen dollars
when the policemen come
[G]Oh, Sweet Mama, [A]Daddy's got them
Deep Ellum [D]Blues.
Now once I had a sweetheart
who meant the world to me,
But she hung around Deep Ellum,
now she ain't what she used to be.
[G]Oh, Sweet Mama, [A]Daddy's got them
Deep Ellum [D]Blues.
[A]Oh, sweet mama, daddy's got them
deep -allum [D]blues.[G][D][A][D]
When you go down in deep -allum,
keep your money in your shoes,
Cause the women in Deep Ellum
got the Deep Ellum blues
[G]Oh, sweet mama, [A]daddy's got them
Deep Ellum [D]blues
When you go down in Deep Ellum,
keep your money in your pants
Cause the redheads in Deep Ellum
never give a man a chance
[G]Oh, sweet mama, [A]daddy's got them
Deep Ellum [D]blues
[A]Oh, sweet mama,
daddy's got them deep -ellum [D]blues.[G][D][A][D]
Now once I knew a preacher,
preached the Bible through and through,
But he went out to Deep Ellum,
now his preachin' days are through
[G]Oh, sweet mama, [A]daddy's got them
Deep Ellum [D]Blues
When you go down in Deep Ellum,
keep your money in your socks
Cause the women in Deep Ellum
will throw you on the rocks
[G]Oh, sweet mama, [A]daddy's got them
Deep Ellum [D]Blues[G][D][A]
[D]You
