You can watch the video clip below of last year’s artist’s at work and since this is an often asked question for those of us in this area, here are the lyrics to the old blues classic, “Deep Ellum Blues”:

if you go down to deep elum
E
put your money in your shoe
E
the women in deep elum
E E7
got them..deep elum blues

“chorus”
A7
oh sweet mama
E
your daddys got them deep elum blues

B
oh sweet mama
E
your daddy got them deep elum blues

once i had a girlfriend
she meant the world to me
then she went down to deep elum
she aint what she used to be

chorus

once i knew a preacher
preached the bible through and through
he went down to deep elum
now his preachin days are through

chorus

when you go down to deep elum
to have a little fun
get your ten dollars ready
when the policeman comes

chorus

when you go down to deep elum
keep your money in your pants
cause the woman in deep elum
dont give men a chance

END
