Decorate the Counter (1952)
by Rufus Thomas Jr.
on Before Stax [The Complete 50's Recordings]
Lyrics
Now here's what you do
When you step into this place
Spread the news around
Decorate the counter
Put that money down
So dig down in your pocket
Pull the green stuff out
Decorate the counter
Turn yourself about
A little bit of green stuff
Decorate the counter
Turn yourself around
Decorate the counter
Don't head for the door
Slap it on the counter
Poor your stuff down on the floor

Decorate the counter
Slap it on down there
Spend a little moolah
Drop a little cash
Dig down in your pocket
Pull the green stuff out
Let's get this joint jumping
So spread that stuff about
Decorate the counter
Don't head for the door
Slap it on the counter
Poor your stuff down on the floor
Decorate the counter man
Cos saturday's here
