Don't Talk No Trash

Kapoed to the 3rd fret
Key of Cmin
shuffle beat


 

Chorus

Don't you talk no trash about my lady.
She might be old and a little bit shady.
But I love this town just like I love my babies.
Don't talk no trash, about New Orleans.


So you say you were down on Decatur,
And the brother there said he'd check you later.
Now you're mad, cause he took you dough,
And left you with a bag of oregano.
Oh well.

 

Bridge 1

You say you've been to Compton,
To Chi town or to Queens,
But til you've been in the 9th ward after dark,
Baby, you ain't never seen mean.
 


 

Chorus

Don't you talk no trash about my lady.
She might be old and a little bit shady.
But I love this town just like I love my babies.
Don't talk no trash, about New Orleans.

 

 

You say you were down on Bourbon Street,
Just lookin' for the music, or a bite to eat.
But you know if you're mama knew what we saw,
She'd go and smack you right in the jaw.
 

Chorus

Don't you talk no trash about my lady.
She might be old and a little bit shady.
But I love this town just like I love my babies.
Don't talk no trash, about New Orleans.

Bridge 2

You say you came to gamble,
Live high off of the hog.
Now you got not 2 pennies left to rub together,
Got caught up in that fog.
Oh well, that's the way it goes.
You come back now hear,
When you got more dough.

 

Chorus

Don't you talk no trash about my lady.
She might be old and a little bit shady.
But I love this town just like I love my babies.
Don't talk no trash, about New Orleans.
