Jj Grey & Mofro - Ybor City lyrics

rate me

the night is cold here on this ground

I hear that dog a howling makes me want to smile - cause

I know a rowdy place where

the whiskeys warm and women are too

when I get to Ybor City

all them women going to love me through and through

the tensions mounting boy them bullets fly

roll over on my back and stare into the sky

them stars look cold and lonesome

but I know where the ladies are sweet as wine

when I get to Ybor City

all the women going to love me out my mind

give me a minute boys

I ain’t dead yet

it’s just I’m tired of fighting

let me catch my breath - cause

I know a place that smells of

cigars and sweet, sweet perfume

when I get to Ybor City

all them women going to treat me like a king

when I get to Ybor City

all them women going to treat me like a king

all you women going to treat me like a king

fighting for my life said around midnight

all you women going to treat me like a king
