rufus thomas - 6-3-8 (that's the number to play) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i woke up early this morning
i didn’t have but ten cents
the woman i love was at the head of my bed
saying the landlord wanted his rent
i went out on the corner
to see what i could do
i decided to play the races
i’m p-ssin’ it on to you

[chorus]
6-3-8 is the number today
6-3-8 is the number you better play

[verse 2]
i don’t believe in gypsy’s
readin’ out the palm of my hand
don’t believe in lady luck
she just wouldn’t understand
i believe in joe
down by the candy store
you would too, good people
if you know just what i know

[chorus]
6-3-8 is the number today
6-3-8 is the number you better play
yeah, hear me

[verse 3]
rusty is pretty fast
i just wanna pull your coat
i do hope you heard what i said
’cause it ain’t no okie-doke
there ain’t no way for you to catch him
that is plain to see
but if you want to get your rusty
you better listen to me

[chorus]
6-3-8 is the number to play
6-3-8 is the number that’s comin’ today
come on, come on now
come on, come on now
come on now
6-3-8 is the number that’s comin’ today
6-3-8 is the number you better play

[outro]
come on, old dog
come on, you don’t walk the dog
i said, come on dog
i said, come on dog
6-3-8 is the number you better play
6-3-8 is the number that’s comin’ today
i ain’t lyin’
i ain’t lyin’
