The Yella In Me (Live: 9 May 66)

歌詞

I was strollin' down the sidewalk with my girl by my side When a great big hunk a fella' came and pushed me aside I said "hey Bud I spose you think it's some kind of joke" The next thing I remember he was jumpin' on my throat With my last few breaths I said, "hey, Bud can't you see" "That you started bringin' out the yella in me" Now this fella rose above me and he started to grin So I used what little strength I had and stuck one on his chin He tore off the arm that did it and he threw it aside And for a while I lost the sight in both of my eyes I didn't have to say a word my girlfriend could see That this fella started bringing out the yella in me Now, I had to show this fella that I couldn't be beat So I tried to make a stand there while I still had my feet I think I made the wrong move and his patience wore thin Cause it took three surgeons day and night to graft back my skin About this time I was shoutin' from the top of the tree That this fella started bringin' out the yella in me My advice to you my friend is that if you ever see A fella walkin' down the street and he's six foot three Be sure to try and pass him walk on down the other side Cause if you don't he'll leave you in a state of suicide I just didn't listen look what happened to me Now this fella's finished bringin' out the Yella in me
