We want to get a little bit of that down the road there,
Cameron, before you turn that thing off this time.
Get out of that key of A.
Got to pick a little down the road.
[A]
Down the road just a mile or two
Lives a little girl named Pearly Blue
About so high and her hair is brown
The sweetest thing of all in this town
Old man Merle, he owns a farm
From the hog lot to the barn
From the banjo to the rail
He makes his living a-toting the mail
Down the road just a mile or two
Lives a little girl named Pearly Blue
About so high and her hair is brown
The sweetest thing of all in this town
Now, Dickie Perkins, every day and Sunday too
I go to see my Pearly Blue
Long before that rooster's crowed
You'll see me a-heading down the road
Every time that I get the blues
I walk the soles right off my shoes
I don't know why I love her so
That girl of mine lives down the road
Aw, [A] play it now, boy
