Origineel
CHORUS]
Take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
You see that girl with the red dress on,
some folks call her Dinah
Stoled my heart away from me
way down in Louisiana
[CHORUS]
The big bee sucks the blossom
and the little bee makes the honey
Poor man throws the cotton
and the rich man makes the money
[CHORUS]
We travel all over this country wide
playing music by the hour
Always wear this great big smile
we never do look sour
[CHORUS]
Would I go…
you …
Let me off …
and I’ll walk down to Greenwood
[CHORUS]
Vertaling
[CHORUS]
Take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
Zie je dat meisje met die rode jurk aan,
sommige mensen noemen haar Dinah
Stolde mijn hart weg van mij
ver weg in Louisiana
[CHORUS]
The big bee sucks the blossom
and the little bee makes the honey
De arme man gooit het katoen
en de rijke man verdient het geld
[CHORUS]
We reizen door het hele land
playing music by the hour
Always wear this great big smile
we never do look sour
[CHORUS]
Zou ik gaan…
je …
Laat me af …
en ik zal naar beneden lopen naar Greenwood
[CHORUS]
