[Verse 1]
Listen everybody, I'm going to sing a song
It won't be dirty, and it won't be long
It's righteous, oh it's righteous
It's righteous, righteous lord lord lord
[Verse 2]
When you want some whiskey, right off the stove
Go over and see Miss Stella Gold
It's righteous, oh it's righteous
It's righteous, righteous lord lord lord
[Verse 3]
The gals from the alley, slipping all around
Telling everybody, they're leaving town
It's righteous, oh it's righteous
It's righteous, righteous lord lord lord
[Verse 4]
I got a yellow gal, and a brown named Mame
But the best I've ever had was the old Crow Jane
It's righteous, oh it's righteous
It's righteous, righteous lord lord lord
[Verse 5]
Met a funny fellow, he didn't like girls
Painted his face and with his hair all curls
It's righteous, oh it's righteous
It's righteous, righteous lord lord lord
[Verse 6]
I'm staying with a woman, about fifty‑two
I thought she was too old I'm telling you
It's righteous, oh it's righteous
It's righteous, righteous lord lord lord
