And when the evening sun goes down,
There's a dim lighted tavern,
Mammy's place that they love best
There's a sweet -toned pi ano
An d there's a fellow that plays it
That uses his pedal for drums
Birmingham with nary a place to go
Tell him you want to go bell house,
that's all he needs to know
An d this, with the music,
will make a bell -house man of you
What I mean is, you'll have that low -down
Birmingham without a place to go
Come on down to my house,
make a pal let on the floor
I'll have you meet some southern gal,
they're gentle, sweet and kind
They've words for your music
Let's go bell house, let's go bell house,
let's go bell house all night long.
