If any of y’all people going out tonight
Let’s go and see Joe Louis fight
If you ain’t got no money
Try to go tomorrow night
‘Cause he in the ring now
Boys, he’s doing his same old thing
Well you know Joe Louis carries a mean left
And he carries a mean right
And if he hit you with either one
Sends the charge from a dynamite
In the ring
Now, he’s doing his same old thing
I’m a-tell all of you prize fighters
Don’t play Joe Louis for no fool
After he hits you with that left duke
Swings a kick from a Texas mule
In the ring, boys
Boys, doing the same old thing
Brown Joе Louis is a two-fist fighter
And he stands six feet tall
He says hе will fight ‘em all
The bigger they come then the harder they fall
In the ring
Oh, he’s doing the same old thing
Tell y’all what I done
Only had ten-hundred dollars
I laid up on my shelf
I bet everybody past my house
In two rounds Joe would knock him out
In the ring
Oh, he’s doing the same old thing
I wouldn’t even pay my house rent
I wouldn’t buy me nothing to eat
If Joe Louis says, “come and take a chance with me
I’ll betcha I’ll put ya on your feet”
In the ring now, he’s still fighting
Doing the same old thing
