You know I hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too
Well! hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too
You know wouldn't nobody let me do what I want to do

You know I travel 'round in Georgia, I made the southern scene
I traveled 'round in Georgia, I made the southern scene
Just trying to find somebody, a friend who's deal was clean

Use me for your fool, sign on the dotted line
Don't ask questions, stupid, 'cause your southern can is mine
Hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too, wouldn't nobody let me do what I want to do

Ah baby, don't try jiving me no more
Ah baby baby, don't try jiving no more
'Cause I'm hip to your jiving, down the road I go

Listen to me people, try to understand, can't get good from evil, so do the best you can
I want to tell you people, please try to understand
You know you can't get good from evil so do the best you can

You know I hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too
Yeah, hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too
Wouldn't nobody let me do what I want to do
