GUEST,barry biesanz Lyr Req: Let Your Money Talk (Kokomo Arnold) (4) Lyr Req: 'Let Your Money Talk' by Kokomo Arnold 08 Feb 04

Years ago I had an LP with Kokomo
Arnold on one side, and Bukka White on the other.
Kokomo did a great version of Alabama Bound called Let Your Money Talk. My mental folk processor tells me it was a slide tune in open G, possibly capoed up.

Some of the words include:

Elder Green's in town (2x) second time is an instrumental repeat
He's got it painted all over his automobile
He's Alabama bound.

Well the rooster crowed (2x)
And the hen ran around (2x)
Said if you want my love, sweet babe
You got to run me down

Let your money talk 4x
If you want to ride you don't have to walk
just let your money talk

Great tune, but I'm missing several verses, and there's a reference to 'rush the can' that I've never figured out...anyone got feedback on that?

Thanks, Barry
