Hey all you peoples going out tonight : just going to see Joe Louis fight
And if you ain't got no money : have to go tomorrow night
Crying he even carried a mean left : and he carried a mean right
And if he hits you with either one : same as a charge from a dynamite
I'm going to tell all of you prize fighters : don't play Joe for no fool
If he hits you with that left duke : same as a kick from a Texas mule
Joe Louis is a two‑fist fighter : and he stands six feet tall
And the bigger they come : he say the harder they fall
Boys if I only had ten hundred dollars : I'd a‑laid it up on my shelf
I'd bet anybody pass my house : that one round Joe would knock him out
I wouldn't even pay my house rent : I wouldn't buy me nothing to eat
Joe Louis would take a chance with them : I would put you on your feet
