Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Everybody seems to know me when
I walk down the street
The cats on the corner
Wave at me
I don't even miss a beat
The policemen all know me
They better leave me be
I'm just another poor rookie cat
From the state of Tennessee
The girls on the corner
Wave when I walk by
I tip my hat like a gentlemen
And I slide under the light
And the policeman all know me
They better leave me be
I'm just a poor rookie in Alabama
From Tennessee
When they let me out of jail
I didn't have nothin but my lucky dice
I'm going downtown
To roll the bones
Come home with something nice
And the police all know me
They better leave me be
Just a poor rookie, in Alabama, from
Tennessee
