Miller's Cave - Louis Armstrong

Way down in the state of Georgia

Through the swamps and the everglades

There’s a big ol' hole in Tiger Mountain

God help the man who gets lost in Miller’s Cave

I had me a girl in Waycross, Georgia

But she had unfaithful ways

She made me feel I wasn’t wanted

Like the bats and the bears in Miller’s Cave

I couldn’t stand the way she did me

Couldn’t take her low down ways

Before I’ll stay with a cheatin' woman

I’ll go and live with the bears in Miller’s Cave

Caught her out, Sunday morning

With some guy they call big Dave

The meanest man in Waycross, Georgia

I’d rather fight a mountain lion in Miller’s Cave

I said: «You'll pay both you and Davey

«I'm gonna see you in your grave.»

They laughed at me and then I shot 'em

I took their cheating, scheming bones to Miller’s Cave

That woman made me feel unwanted

But I guess I showed her I was brave

The most wanted man in the state of Georgia

But they’re never gonna find me 'cause I’m lost in Miller’s Cave
