Kill It Kid by Blind Willie McTell Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1962

Down in Miami on Second Avenue
Men showin' boys and gals what they can do
About kill it, kid
Hot mama, let's kill it, kid

Down on the avenue to Keyfield Hall
You'll find Kelly is the king of the ball
Take it easy
You got to teach 'im how to kill it, kid

You know, Sister Kate took brother Mo'
Bounced him around across the flo'
Tryin' to kill it, kid
Tryin' to teach him how to kill it, kid

Set down, gal, take a drink of this pint
Kelly be here, directly, kick the j'int
He gon' kill it, kid
Take the flo' an' kill it, kid

Set down, gal, take a drink of this pint
Kelly be here, directly, kick the j'int
He gon' kill it, kid
Take the flo' an' kill it, kid
But you can kick it in the country, it won't cost you a dime
But get in town, Bud, it's a forty-dollar fine
Kill it, kid
Get out o' town to kill it, kid

Papa got a Cadillac, mama got a Buick
Sister got mad 'cause she wouldn't do it
Kill it, kid
Hot mama, kill it, kid

She want to shake it in the Cadillac, rock it in the Ford
Do the right jumpin' on the runnin' board
Right hard, don't jump
Kill it, kid

I realize you a little old and up in years
Lotsa old gals shift them gears
On wheels
Quit turnin' an' kill it, kid

You know, I'm crazy 'bout your lovin', fool about your lot
Goin' plumb crazy 'bout the wobble you got
Quit switchin', don't shimmy
Kill it, kid

Take that trip over to Modern Top
Show these Florida women how to eagle rock
Spread your wings, don't flop
Kill it, kid
You got to dodge your ma, dodge your pa
Go to Florida and dodge the Georgia law
Then you kill it, kid
Down there you can kill it, kid

Sit in the corner, gal, make some toddy
We gonna get high and drunk ever'body
Then we gonna kill it, kid
Get loaded, kill it, kid

You don't believe I'll swing you right
Take me to your castle, let's think all night
Round the table
Get mellow, kill it, kid

Now, you gonna twist it like a tadpole, wobble like a frog
Ever' time I kick it, you'll holler, "God Dawg!"
Kill it, kid
Hot mama, let's—
